Ya think I've got a Flowmaster muffler?
So I was just wondering about what muffler I've got on my exhaust, so I took a couple pics and made a couple sound clips. I measured the muffler and the body is about 17 1/2 inches, including pipes 24 inches. So then I looked at some Flowmasters on Jeg's and it seems like its a Delta Flow 50 series type C (offset/center) 3" in/out, body and overall measurements are close to the same. What do you think?

they look ugly, out of place, and heavy
replace ASAP....especially if they ARE flowmaster....
also, do not rev your engine a lot when its cold, not good for any engine....and i hope its cold with that smoke, otherwise youre looking at a blown engine/turbo

the car was pretty well warmed up when i was revving it, i did the rev video about 5 minutes after the idle video, and the car was running the whole time in between.

Burning rubber? smells like fuel to me
Well, its more of a unburnt fuel/something else smell... not exactly sure what it is but there is an abondance of smoke and it doesnt seem to go away most the time =\

Sounds good but get rid of it. Turbos hate the baffled style flowmaster mufflers. There was a huge discussion about it on the turbobuick forum a few months ago, they will actually rob you of hp.

Yea I'm gonna get a new exhaust system eventually. Probably with a magnaflow 5x8 oval muffler. Single 3" in dual 2.5" out. Or the Racing Beat full system.. but thats a $400 difference in price.
