Re: IML: Exhaust preferences



Rich:
 
Thanks for the information on this, I was hoping someone would have put Flowmasters on their car and have an opinion on it.  I have Flowmasters on the truck, and love the sound, but wasn't sure I wanted my Imperial to sound like quite that much of a hot rod.  Thanks for the information about the resonators...will ask for that when having the exhaust done on the Imp this summer.
 
Thanks again!

I had Flow Masters put on my '73, but was a little too loud inside the car.
I went back to the exhaust dealer (Mufflex), and had them put resonators on
behind the mufflers. The car has a nice tone, and plenty of power. Feels
like it has 50 more horsepower!

  When I get exhausts done on an Imperial, I like the least restrictive
system I can get without sacrificing much (if any) quietness. I don't mind
if you can hear the exhaust note a little when you get into the throttle,
but under normal operation silence is key - I generally like to hear the
engine and air intake sound more than the exhaust sound. I also go with dual
exhausts if at all possible.
