Is your car really that quiet @ idle?? I have 2 12" twisters on my car - 3" i.d. though, and they're pretty loud. I was going to get them flanged for going to the track w/ and buying a pair of quieter
borla XR1's <- I had a single XR1 w/ my old stock exhaust and it was fairly quiet. But the twisters (flo pro's) are definitely cheaper... I'll still keep the 3" Dr Gas X pipe and such...

Ken...I am interested in the place. What is the name of the shop? Maybe i have heard of them.
And Chevy 1963...how loud are these? My car is a daily and i dont want it too loud (ie open cutout with gutted cat is TOO loud) im looking for a good clean solid sound. This is maybe the 5th time ive changed my exhaust setup and hopefully my last. it gets expensive after all.

The set up is much quiet now. I'd al most sounds stock at idle outside the car, in side the car is different from stock ucz of the headers right under you. but i like the muscle car sound.
before this set up I was running stock manifold, dual stock cats and stright pipe out the back, and the new set is defintely quieter.
If you get the flo pro, maybe you should get the longer one may be that will quiet the everyday driving noise down.
I do drive mine daily, and nothing but complaints on the sound.
I wish i could get you a video of the car running, so you could here it, sounds really tough, sound like a beast at WOT at the track this weekend
