    If i were to get a glasspack muffler like a cherry bomb to replace the stock resonator on an 04 gtp, what size would i get, and would it make a noticeable difference in sound?

    Probably. How much is unknown. If you get one about the same size you might not notice to much of a difference. If you go any shorter it will get louder.

    I want to get the 40's too. It seems like a lot of people don't like them but I love the sound of the flowmasters

    Just keep the stock GM Resonator and save yourself some money...throw on some Flow40's and get a bigger Y-Pipe in the back...that'll give ya sound take the cat out too...shouldn't cost you more than $200 IMO...if it does you don't have a good exhaust guy

    Yup! I just tell all the ricer kids that I did a v8 swap. It's fun to watch them start counting...

    I'm on a P-log setup with no cat, stock res and no mufflers. No rasp and not near as loud as you'd expect.

    Flowmasters Suck! They are overpriced and still restrictive only thing they got for them is a sound deeper than stock. They're just like Sony you just pay for the name.

    Go Magnaflow you won't be disappointed.

    Also i can and have run 11psi on my 3.4" FWIW. Dropping pulleys isn't everything. You gotta have the mods to go with it.

    Well...unless your making over 350WHP stock mufflers are still good and swapping mufflers is only good for sound anyways...no ones buys them for a performance increase...
