Are you going to drive the 450+hp rwd car in the snow/salt? If not minor crap from summer roads will not do a damn thing to your exhaust. I ran a flowmaster 44 on my ranger for years. My buddy has a f-150 5.4L with dual flowmaster’s and it see winter and he isnt anal about cleaning his truck… no porblems still look new. > > Flowmasters dont drone as much as FG packed mufflers. in my opinion from what I installed or ran myself. > > BUT magnaflow makes all their shit out of stainless. you wont see them so just get the satin SS. The magnaflows a built very well, and I saw 2 FlowMasters welds start to crack… no MF’s had any problems for me so far. > > Borla is nice, but overpriced i think. > > I say run cherry bombs. it is a v8 afterall. I can get a brand new Borla muffler for 170 shipped to my door. A magnaflow is $110 shipped. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/cutouts-or-no-cutouts/242851)._
