which flowmaster was it? there are a lot of options..some people are running the 40, others the 50, and even others are running other models. I personally run the flowmaster super 40.
I like the sound it has..and it sounds more like the magnaflow than what you played there. Though it gurgles a bit more.

That's an interesting take on the video. Two of us shot this video. In person, we both thought that Flowmaster sounded more ricey. Ricey must be a relative term. To clarify, the Borla and the Magnaflow had a deeper tone compared to the Flowmaster. The Flowmaster had a sharper higher pitch tone. Quite a bit louder also.
It was a Flowmaster model #942554, which is a 50 series (I previously thought it was a 40) HERE's A LINK

It's a kit, that by chance, I just happen to offer. PM sent, with details. It's installed with band clamps, not welded.
The muffler model number is a 14377. There are other less expensive Magnaflow mufflers, that will sound the same. I use this one, because when used with my Evap Can relocation kit, it can be mounted next to the lower rear control arm.

I've never felt any heat coming through from the muffler. Near as I can tell, the muffler runs cooler than the piping. And yes, it's an easy option to move the factory heat shield. I've just never installed it that way.

hey woods -
in this pic from your website:
does the muffler hang down as low as the evap cannister did when it was still in that position?
does the muffler hang down lower than the frame rail?
