No
matter what vehicle you drive -- Flowmaster has a system specifically for it
with the tone you desire.
The Force II system is designed to provide
plenty of "Flowmaster tone" under acceleration but produces lower
sound levels while cruising.
Flowmaster's systems will improve acceleration and passing power, as well as
help improve fuel mileage. Every system is individually engineered and
dyno-tested for each application and includes all required mounting hardware.
All tubing is mandrel bent for superior exhaust gas flow, and is a key to the
system's performance improvements. Both mufflers and tubing are fabricated from
aluminized steel for corrosion resistance. Complete Flowmaster systems outperform most OEM and competitive
aftermarket exhaust systems. Why? Because all Flowmaster systems are
designed and tested for each specific type of vehicle. Our systems always
include design specific muffler applications and mandrel bent tubing which work
together, creating a general improvement in power, exhaust tone and gas mileage.

Should I use an "H" or Balance pipe?
An "H" pipe, commonly referred to as an equalizer, balance or
crossover pipe, connects the two exhaust pipes. It will balance the pressure of
the exhaust pulses in the system, thereby reducing interior and exterior sound
while increasing power. In general the "H" pipe should be installed as
close as possible to the header collector. With manifolds, the "H"
pipe should be laced just past where the downpipes become horizontal.
"H" pipes should be the same diameter as the main pipes or no-more
than 1/2" smaller.
Tailpipes and Power
Tailpipes aid in keeping atmospheric pressure from rushing back into the
muffler. Tailpipes can improve performance and control sound. In addition,
tailpipe length can affect the power as well as sound. Tailpipes shold be a
minimum or 10", and not longer than 6' Tailpipe length of more than 6' may
need a resonator.

Suggested Pipe Sizes for Street Performance |
|
The size of pipe used in an exhaust system is a critical item to consider. Pipe diameter will affect the sound level and performance characteristics of the muffler, but keep in mind that bigger is not always better. Too large of a pipe can actually hinder exhaust scavenging by allowing atmospheric pressure up the pipe. As a rule, most general street applications use 2.00" through 2.50" pipe, while modified street applications will generally use 2.50" or 3.00" pipe.
