So the flowmasters make better sound and they will not choke out a stock system. I can make any system you guys want, but if you want me to stock these systems (meaning they are not built to order) I will need to know what you want for a mostly stock car. Special orders are welcome but expect me to suggest certain things with them. For example... a dual 2.5" is WAY too big I would say a 2" dual would be fine. Mine is huge so there is no restriction, not everyone is going to want the sound that comes with those big echoing pipes

I know that the sound of a Flowmaster is nice on most vehicles. As for the SVX, I have never heard one.
And as far as dual 2.5" is concerned, that is just way too much for a stock-ish SVX. I built my true dual from 2.25" mandrel bent tubes and would have to say that if I could have bought a smaller kit (Jegs hot rod universal kit) it would have been the better thing to do. My pipes are too large for the motor and are probably reducing torque, not to mention some lame exhaust notes.

TomsSVX, thanks for answering my question. If I were in the market I would want a manifold back exhaust system.

I have the Flowmaster 80 series muffler on mine. I love the sound it's great, I'm sure Tom can vouch for that. They're really good mufflers. I've heard the 50 series on an SVX as well, and that sound great.
