A muffler doesnt dictate the sound of the car, the engine does. So a flowmaster on a civic will still sound like a civic, not a muscle car. Hell, even if you used a flowmaster muffler from a mustang it will still sound like a four banger.

Yeah i never said it won't sound like a four-banger, i just meant that it wouldnt sounds like a typical V8 would.

Well yeah, a flowmaster wont be too loud and will have a pretty deep grumble. Try searching google for some sounds clips, I know theres some out there.

Re: flowmaster exhaust ?

Honestly on my friends 4 banger saturn it sounds like ass..I havent heard good flow masters on 4 cyls that sound good..Nor is that an upgrade most of us perform here in the civic forum...are you getting the flows cause they are cheap? There are alot of other brands to consider..

i dont think the flowmast is gonna be louder than the N1... the reason they are loud on mustangs and other v6 or v8 vehicles is because the engines in them are so much bigger... your still gonna have a little sound comming out your tail... it will be an ok loudness but probably not like your thinking... and theyre are plently of pipes out there that will get you loud, and not a weedwhacker... just dont buy a can..
