I used to have the Flowmaster 40s on my 03 cobra and I'm about to get an 04 cobra and I want flows again but I don't have any experience w/ the 44s. Do they sound different? And do you like one better than the other?
Flowmaster 40s vs 44s
- Thread starter RS22
- Start date
I had 44s and i thought they were quiet, i had them with an o/r x and dumped in my 96 cobra. I prefer the original 40s flowmastersthey have a good tone and are louder.
Based on the sound clips I've heard the 40s are way better but I wasn't sure if that was just the camera sound quality in the clips.
Voted 44s had them on my 03gt. Sounded good but flows just dont do these cars justice...

if you want the loudest flows with out getting the 1 chambers original 40s is the next one louder. I have them with my o/r x and love the sound
I have stock manifolds, magnaflow catted x and super 44's. Sounds decent but I will soon be replacing them with a Mac Catback
The 40's sound "better"... but if you want that chambered sound, I highly suggest a mac exhaust. Sounds infinitely better IMO.

I had super 40's welded into the factory catback after i first got the car - they sounded great and were a huge improvement over the quiet factory mufflers - after a year I installed a Steeda Catback and found the mufflers to tame so I removed the Steeda Mufflers and installed Super 44's - I think the Super 44's are a bit louder than the Super 40's and definately louder than the Steeda's - I just installed an MRT Catted H and I love the way the exhaust sounds now - just the right amount of popping on decel and the MRT H-pipe definately upped the volume - just my $.02
Never heard a mac catback in person but for now I'm gonna go the cheap rout and get some 40s to weld in and enjoy for a while. Once finances relax after buying the cobra I'll think about a mac catback.
I used to have a mac o/r H and 2 chamber 40s before and liked the sound so I'm not worried about it.
had macs on my 99 with a bassani o/r x and they were noticebly louder than my bassanis at idle. they did tend to pop allot on decel. Mac mufflers are $60 on the mac performance site.
Oh nice...I never even knew they offered just the mufflers. Thought it was catback or nothing.
I'll look into this.
I see it now. What's the difference between the stainless steel versus aluminized steel? Just rust proofing?

I have 44's they sound good but I'm about to put some 10's in
I've got a pair of super 44s for an IRS car if anyone is interested. Ran them a couple years. They sound almost identical to my Macs, so much actually that I was a little pissed after buying and installing the Macs.
