Aero Turbine or Flowmasters for the marauder?

[Mike827]

Hello MM's owners, I'm having trouble on choosing between the areo turbine 2525 and the flowmasters for my marauder. Which one would sound best on our type of car...any suggestions will help. Thanks.

[martyo]

Flows.

If you need a guy to do the install let me know.

[DOOM]

Im running flowmaster super 44's love the sound.
:banana2:

AeroTurbine's all the way but that's just my opinion.

I had Flowmasters Super 40's before, got tired of the drone and switched to the Aero's and love them. My car is louder and quieter when it needs to be with the Aero's than with the Flowmasters.

As a representative for Ourdealsrock I would like to offer a special because we arent going to let some nobody out sell us in Aero. I will do (2) Aero 2525's shipped for $175 for this forum only. 888.368.9430 ( I have 49 instock ) I also am willing to run a special for any Mangnaflow or Flowmaster parts that you commonly use. Give me some part #'s and I will let you know what I can do.

In reguards to the x-pipe vs. H-pipe we have always had better luck with making more power if you use a baffled style muffler ( Flowmaster, Flo~Pro ) with a H-pipe because both the muffler and the pipe use pulses to work. The X-pipe works well with straight thru designs ( Magnaflow, Dynomax, Borla, Aero ). So to answer your questions of what makes more power the X-pipe or H-pipe it all depends on the the rest of the exhaust. They both can be just as effective.

Most of the modular turbo folks use ultraflows for the least backpressure. Sound great also.

[Mike827]

How loud are the aero turbines 2525. Are they louder than the flowmaster 40

[ctrlraven]

Louder as in throatier sound yes they are when you want them to be. But as cruising speeds and around town at least to me they are quieter than the Flowmasters.

[breeze]

how about those two mufflers and SLP loudmouths?...im trying to figure out which 1 would sound better.

[ctrlraven]

SLP loudmouths will be louder and could be more annoying. Personally I can't stand SLP mufflers on modular cars or even 5.0 Foxbody's but that's just my opinion.

Breeze, where are you located? If you wanted to hear the Aero's in person I could possibly meet you some place and let you hear them in person.

[ImpalaSlayer]

heres my opinion on the aeros.

if all your going to do to the exhaust is change the mufflers and tips BUY THEM! they sound awesome. i was very pleased.

if you plan on putting headers on the car and running one set of cats DO NOT BUY THEM! once i did this my car now sounds like a redneck chevy pick up with no mufflers on it! i HATE THEM NOW!!! im really quite dissapointed because they sounded perfect before i had the headers

[Hacklemerc]

I recently switched from Flowmaster 40 series to Magnaflows. ITs a bit quieter at idle but just as throaty under acceleration. My flowmasters rusted out and were just junk.

i live in and eldersburg it pritty far from here but half way we can do that i just dont know where halfway would be.lol...and Impslayer i was gonna run full mandrelbend X-pipe kooks headers highflow cat n 2nd cats delete with areo/slp or 44's...some guy told me get flows single chamber...i just need to find that tone i want and good air flow.

Well you can do all that but whatever muffler you decide on getting make sure you get the exhaust shop to do a flange connection on it so if you don't like it then you can replace it with another muffler and do a swap out sorta. Better than removing a set of mufflers and hacking up the piping to install another set that you might not even like.

I could probably meet you in Crofton one day after work which is like 20-30 mins from my shop in Elkridge. DOOM lives in Bowie area and he has Kooks, x-pipe, Flowmaster Super 44's he might be able to let you hear his.

[CanadaMarauder]

Flowmaster super 44's all the way.With resonator delete tips. BUT keep the little rubber thingy's off the old mufflers and install on new to reduce drone

I have to agree :2thumbs: for aeroturbine

If you want good air flow, then flow masters are NOT what you want. They sound good, but that's about it.

Croftons like 15-20 mins from my house we can do that. i live 10 mins from Doom. Ive heard Dooms and twins 44s they do sound good but thats what everybody gets. i kinda want my own sound tho....and RR Suki y do u say NOT to get flows, they restrict!?

If you are interested in maximum flow for your money they are a bad choice yes, they do not flow much more than OEM. There are flowbench numbers out there you can find online. I wanna say on the dynomax site they have some flow bench numbers on their site too. I mean you can make power don't get me wrong, but flowmasters won't help, they'll sound good though, and certainly won't hurt, but never buy them thinking that they are just great flowing cans. Get em for the sound :D

[breeze]

i could do that, but i jus dont want to limit myself to flows even tho i know what sound its going to make. i want to see how ctrlravens sounds but Impslayer doest like the way it sounds with bolt-ons (redneck style.lol) so i may have to go back to the drawing board but hell, im going to the O.C. meet im sure i will here something i like. :)

[RR|Suki]

I have Dynomax Super turbos, quite off throttle, loud on

dynomax makes some chamered units too that flow rather well apparently

[breeze]

id have to hear them in person. i dont know that exhaust so i cant hear the true sound besides reving

love this sound...

Keep in mind, Marauders have a lot more exhaust pipe and will likely never sound quite like a stang

[breeze]

true!...i did think about that too.

[ImpalaSlayer]

suki, you just made my new choice for mufflers! hows the drone on them?

i really hate these aeros now. with the lts they sound like poop

[RR|Suki]

I really like em, they never really irritate me, sometimes I do wish they were a little louder off throttle... but that's why you add cut outs right? ;)
I'll try to get an in car vid over the weekend, they are pretty dang quiet on the freeway I gotta say. Heck just in general they have a real nice mellow rumble to them if you aren't in the throttle.
They never do have that annoying tone I used to get out of the old straight though mufflers. I did have an X-pipe at that time too though so I dunno if the H pipe instead of the X helps with the drone type sound as well too or not.

All that aside I really like em, and drone has really been a non issue ever since the new install setup.

[ImpalaSlayer]

ill be looking at these. my car is not fun at all to drive with these things

[ImpalaSlayer]

i just looked these up, they are quite cheap

[Crown Vicman]

If you want my choice for the mufflers that should of came on the marauder stock-wise. The dynomax turbo mufflers. Slightly louder than stock with a better sound.

Yep those are the ones we've been talking about

I got your number so we'll try to hook up soon.

[kphillykid1023]

i got aero's they are the best not to loud when im crusing,but when i hit it hard sound like a bomb going off,and i got my 2nd set of cats deleted

[LANDY]

i have all four cat converters out with an x pipe and magnaflows. i lke it pretty much, but at first without x pipe, withall cats i did not notice a difference in power.

[1stMerc]

+xx on Aero Turbine 2525's. Great all around sound.


Sorry for your pain Impalaslayer, know you looked forward to getting them.

Don't remember, did you post a clip of your new setup?
