exhaust for a blazer with a 350?
Hi, i was wondering if any of you could recommend a good exhaust for my blazer? I was looking at the flowmaster 40's which sound good, what do you guys think? I think this one sounds the best, but it doesnt have one for 3" pipe

I wouldn't go with the flowmaster, simply because the deflectors and baffles they use in them slow down flow for sound, and you end up with a powerful-sounding car that actually doesn't gain anything... I have flo-pro v-forces on my v6, and it sounds nice, and i do have a gain in hp and mpg... here is the sound clip...

It uses 3" piping as well, at least after the outlet... so it should work excellent for your v8.

His sounds pretty damn good for a V6.
If you want a V8 go buy a V8, if you want crappy sound and poor exhaust flow, install a Flowmaster.

That V-force will sound awesome on a V8, that or a Ravin Z55 or Z33 or a Flo-pro.

Re: exhaust for a blazer with a 350?
Unfortunately, Ravin Mufflers are almost impossible to come by in the US... I can hardly find any mention of them online as well... oh well, i luv my v-force!
