:undecided:undecided When I put the dual exhaust on my TB, I originally had a 50 series Flowmaster. It sounded great but when the DOD engaged, the tone changed and the drone inside was terrible. Now that I have diasabled the DOD, I'm thinking about a 50 series again. :undecided I just love how it sounded around town after getting it done. I want that sound back again!
What do you think?

What quiet things down device are you currently running?
I have had a 2 chamber 40 series on my Sonoma for 10 years now. It sounds mellow and when I stomp the foot pedal, it talks with authority. I have been accused of running a V8 a time or two and put the hood up to show the 2.8L V6. I probably will get the 40 series put on the TB, maybe with the dual out.
How much mileage difference did turning the DOD off cause? I now have an on/off switch for mine.

I have a Flowmaster 70 series now. Same sound as the 50 series with less volume.
I know for sure I don't want a 40 series! On a V8 the 40 series is FOCKING LOUD!!
I haven't driven the TB enough after getting the DOD turned off to tell a difference. Nukedog had his turned off and he didn't see any mpg drop.

You have to get a tuner to turn it off.

DOD = Displacement on Demand?
Yeah the 40 Series Flowmaster is loud on a V8 ...
