Yeah there is! Mabey not on a flowmaster, but any muffler with packing material as sound deadning has a break in period where the material sets in.

I'm talking about the break in before you hear the true sound...
my sound has changed a little... Yeah it boosts quicker, sounds better and it definantly seems less restricitve I must say this is by far my favorite cobalt exhaust

Like a month or 2 ago you said you though the flowmaster was the best one.

Make up your mind!

I think it sounds better than the exhaust setups you can buy but I think a custom setup with a glass pack sounds best.

yep... you know what I just realized... it seems like we have gotten exhaust and changed mufflers at pretty much the same time... It seems like you got your flow and exhaust a day after me and it seems like you got your new muffler a day after me or the same day... what can I say you've got good taste

Uh... Yeah a loud exhaust roaring through your neighborhood at 11 or 12 at night would make me mad too

Yeah 100 degrees and 90% humidity is no fun, course neither is 120 and 3% humidity, or in late july and august, 115 degrees and 40-50% humitidy.

I have flowmasters on my v6 mustang and it sounded badass!!

i think the rasp you are hearing is moister vibrating in the exhaust because my corsa does the same thing, when you start it up it sounds like there are marbels in the exhasut but let it run for like 5 minutes and it sounds normal.
