So I just got a 40 series flowmaster installed and I am happy with the sound I just expected it to be louder than it is. I was wondering if anyone experitenced this too or if I need to just break it in?? Thanks

yeah wait for the break in and you'll be happy, same thing happened with my magnaflow, now it sounds REAL good.

After it breaks in and it is still not loud enough you might try some large exhaust tips. I have dual 18" tips and they act like megaphones.

It takes about 500 miles or so for it to break in from my experience. I have the same muffler...just remember it's not a V8.

i don't think the FM have the fiberslike the MF mufflers. nothing should change since there is nothing burnning out. did you leave the res behinds the muffler in? I did and that thing makes it pretty quiet. no dron and its not to loud
