Rep Power: 0 Flowmaster series 60 muffler
I had the series 60 Flowmaster muffler installed on my car. I like it, kinda a deeper tone than stock but still really quiet. I'm wondering if I was to resonator if it would make it a little louder, but still keep the deep tone. I don't want the loud ricer sound like a weedeater or just so loud that I will get tickets or can't stand to drive it.
What do you think the removal of the exhaust resonator will do with the Flowmaster 60 series muffler?

Rep Power: 0 I know I have a Civic, not a Mustang. I didn't ask for comments on my choice of exhaust. I asked for comment on the removal of the resonator. If you can't post something that answers my question, don't bother posting.

Rep Power: 0 Also, I got the flowmaster because everyone that I know that has a Flowmaster has been extremely happy with what they got. And Flowmaster has come out with the 60 series which has been designed for imports.
"The 60 Series™ Performance Import muffler is designed specifically to bring Flowmaster performance to smaller cars and trucks with small displacement 4- and 6-cylinder engines. All 60 Series™ mufflers feature Delta Flow® technology for increased torque and horsepower and reduced interior resonance. When fitted with a standard tailpipe, the 60 Series™ produces a mellow sound. A larger diameter tailpipe will create a deeper tone both inside and outside the vehicle."

GrayGhost, I think that at their website they have a sound clip of an Integra. It has the Catback without a resonater. Flowmaster uses 2" piping so it's real close to our 1.75". Maybe that will give you an Idea on how it will sound.

Rep Power: 0 I've heard civics with the straight through canister mufflers with their resonators removed, to me that sounds like ****. But the Flowmaster is chambered out. So that design should make it sound different. It already has given a much deeper tone than stock, but its just so quiet.

Rep Power: 275 I have the Flowmaster 60 series........AND LOVE IT!!!!!! GreyGhost, DO not take out your resonator unless you want a REALLY LOUD CAR. I have my 60 series with 2 1/2" pipes and it awesome (with resonator).
Just upsize your pipes and youll be fine Grey.

Well i have the 60 series muffler with a 4" tip and 2.25" catback piping with a ebay header. It sounds Perfect. I just installed the header today and the powerband feels very smooth and the speed is faster.

I also have a 60 series flowmaster. i had the same problem u have now. i took the resinator off and it was much much lounder and aggressive sounding. but i just found out today the inside of it is braking up and i've only had it for a year so now i have to get a new one. it sounds good but mine didnt last and now i'm going to get a greddy exhaust system put on my civic.
Good luck
