Anyone could post the sound of a GT with K&N air filter and the intake mod?
If i have the muffs changed will this soft the air intake sound?
I've heard some Ford Contour SVT and even a VR6 Golf and it sounds grat to me, but never heard a GT.

Alex cheers

The K&N SUCKS air, its loud, when I have the full FWI on it sounds alot like when someone tries to whistle really hard and cant make the whistling noise, like WHSSSST or something similar if your trying to make the noise while you read this hehe. I can still hear it at low rpm with the rumble but it is definately drowned out when I step on it. Im searching for a 20ft USB extension for my comp cam so I can get some garage vids but our cam corder broke before we got any footage of the car show I was going to tape *Cry*

The exhaust or the intake? The intake only makes a suction sound when you first slam the gas, from about the 2 line to the 3 line on the rpm gauge, then the exhaust/engine drown it out after that, or when you start the car from cold when its warming up it gets quite loud from the intake area, can hear it inside the house upstairs with all the doors closed when its in the garage, ive had people mistake it for a turbo a couple times before who didnt know what was what.

As far as the mufflers it depends, on light throttle I hear a steady rumbling noise, if I floor it it sounds amazing at high RPM its almost addictive, and when it shifts it makes a short popping sound like a corvette, the difference between the stock sound and the sound now is like a cat to a lion, while still remaining under the decibel limit.

Overall if your gonna mod your GP at all I would consider these two mods pretty much mandatory, best money ive ever spent on performance upgrades dollar for dollar.

Where are you guys getting your Flowmaster 50 and 40's, because when I look at http://www.flowmastermufflers.com/cgi-bin/flowmaster/gmh.html?id=qpKqxEHq for '01 Pontiacs they don't have the GTP (or GP for that matter listed). My GTP that I bought a couple months ago has Borla mufflers on it, which I thought sounded awesome when I first bought the car. Now, its loud all the time, I mean all the time...noise at cruise speed is not cool. I'm looking for flow without the drone.

I grabbed mine on Ebay from peformancepeddler.com. They were a buy now for 35 a piece. I grabbed the 2 1/2 or was it 2 1/4 offset in center outs. You'll need a reducer to mate up to the stock exhaust. But since your going from the smaller pipe to a bigger inlet on the muffs there is no restriction.

looks like the price has gone up since I bought mine back in june.
These guys were great parts were shipped next day and I recieved my muffs three days later.

withstupid Performance Peddler I really gotta back on this one, its a great company. Shipped almost immediately arrived a few days earlier than the shipping I paid for, great price my SLP tips were actually almost more than the muffs. Be sure to get the U-bend deleted while you get it welded for those of you who get'em and take'em in to get installed.

Robin if you dont want loud sound go with the 50 series delta flow, CanadianGTP got them and said theyre nice and quiet and sound great. I prefer the deeper rumble which was super 40 series and herc got the louder of the bunch which is the regular 40 series, careful with these if you plan to get alot of extra ponies later on I heard them on a thunderbird with straight pipes and it nearly popped my eardrum, plus the guy got a fix it ticket and sound decibel tickets right after he set off all the car alarms in the parking lot from the revving.

Part number for the 50's i got are 942451 (Still confused about the free upgrade i got, but i'll crawl around under the car in the spring).

Still can't say enough good things about them, half the time i drive now with my stereo off just so I can hear em', I even can now work the gas to get different notes going to try to get a combination of cool bass tunes going :p - As for the dual tips, now other GP'ers know i've done some mods, so it's sparked some conversations with guys around town.

Love em, Hands down best mod yet!!! And yup, when i hit crusing speed, they are the same as the stock exhaust. I only hear them when playing around a bit or a lot smile

It's a good thing they gave you a nod. One of my friend's friend had a '78 Trans Am (Mint). They were driving down Lake Shore Drive they were pulled over. They were wondering what gives. Would you believe the cops just wanted to see the car up front??? Plus, they couldn't believe the car was mint!!!

blacknred. How's it going, good to see you on the Boards, you'll love it here. The total install with Muff's and Pipes was around $500.00 Canadian. The boys at Thrifty on 156st Did an awesome job. Make sure you get the UBend Delete first or at the same time though, it makes a diff.

Not sure about the 40's but i would suspect same price.

Parts in Canada..HAAAAA. Maybe you'll have some luck with some used parts, but I order mine all from the states. YOu'll get killed on the Broker fees if you courier so try to avoid that and use Postal and Patience if you can dude!

Welcome aboard. I think that's 3 Edmontonians now. Cool.!!!
