Going Spintech
Like the title says....I'm going spintech! I am so freakin tired of the flowmaster! I have heard really good things about spintech from alot of happy spintech owners!
I want as loud as I can get but still sound good! I have side exit exhaust with a Flowmaster Super 40 and its just not loud enough for me! I had the Flowmaster Super 40 dumped before the axle and hated the constant drone which lead me to the side exit then it wasnt loud enough for me! So which spintech do I go with? 1. Super Pro Street 2. Pro Street 3. Sportsman Street 4. Pro Shootout Which one of the four is going to be what I want? BTW.....It is a 2002 4.3L |

Re: Going Spintech
Yea the proshoutout is the loudest lol but if you don't care about sound level go for it. I have the step below the proshout out which is the prostreet and after i bought mine i bought 4 more...2 for tiresmokinV8 and his dual setup, 1 for his 94 gmc sierra, and 1 my cousin's friend with a civic hatchback. They all sound really good and yea the hatch still sounds like a ricer it actually made it more aggressive sounding and doesn't have a big fart can on the end. I mean it does run low 12's without a spoiler, blingin rims, or decals so i do give it some respect.

Re: Going Spintech
I've been wanting to try a Spintech for quite some time now. I have true duals, no cat, OR X pipe, and headers. I currently run two Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers. I may try the Pro shootout because I like loud vehicles too. Also these mufflers and more expensive. I hope they have a deeper sound yet a better quality sound than Flowmaster. I know for sure they sound really good on 04-06 GTO's.

Re: Going Spintech
I had a super 44 before I switched over to the Sportsman, best muffler decision I've made yet. Had all the same volume (if loud is what you're going for
) with about 5% of the drone at highway speeds as the Flow.As far as expensive, You can find Pro streets and Pro shootouts/"Super" pro streets (same thing on the last two, 4x6 case, two spin coils instead of 3) for around $75 bucks, so they're really just about as much as most places are asking for a Flowmaster. |

Re: Going Spintech
I guess I am just going to buy it directly from Spintech! I didnt know of anyone else that sells them. I am going to go with the 3 inch single in and out Pro Shootout! Only because I want my truck as loud as possible and still sound good! |

Re: Going Spintech
Their website: http://www.spintechmufflers.com/spin...ntechindex.asp Call them up. I'm not sure yet what I'm going to run on the Chevelle. I was thinking pro shoot outs, but then again, i'm going to have cut outs on it too. So I might go with something quite. |

Re: Going Spintech
That would be a very bad ass setup. And the pro shout out is more free flowing than the flowmaster single chamber and definitely spintechs are build better by far. They are built like mini tanks and look bulletproof once your holding one in your hands. And if before you assemble it you throw on a few coats of some silver or w/e color your like VHT spraypaint it'll last even longer. One guy on this forum has had his spintech for almost ten years now. They are just starting to become really popular now tho

Re: Going Spintech
So I can actually do that exhaust setup and be ok with backpressure and everything? Cuz I was gonna go 2.5" off the manifolds all the way back. |

Re: Going Spintech
Well that's gonna be my setup becaues I run true duals w/o cat, x pipe, and jba headers. I know most of ya'll have heard the sound clip of my truck. If not please do so in the clip section. I'm gonna order them pretty soon. Spintech really has gotten popular here lately. I think soon everyone will have one on their trucks for long.

Re: Going Spintech
Awesome man! The only thing I am lacking is the headers! I was thinkin about getting headers this summer! I found some on summit that are pretty decently priced.... My question is though....could I buy these? They are for my year model.... here is a link to what I was going to order: http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku |

How much did your headers help?? Because i heard the stock headers flow fine up to 300hp.

Re: Going Spintech
Also if you replace the y-pipe that's what helps quite a bit since the stock y-pipe is pretty restrictive

Re: Going Spintech
After the blower they came alive. As far as the Y pipe, I'm running 2.50 true duals w/X pipe so no Y pipe. The Y pipe IMO was a better invest before I ran true duals. |
