I'm running the flowmaster 40's and couldn't be happier. I've heard the flowmaster 44's and they really don't sound like they restrict the exhaust at all and I've had a few friends pulled over because the police officer questioned their exhaust system. Two of them have actually received tickets for too much noise.
Depends on what exhaust pipe your using. If your using 2.25 inch pipe, then go with the super 44's. If you have 2.5 inch pipe, go with the flow 40's. You want to have a little restriction in the exhaust. This will help with low end torque on the street and prevent the risk of a dropped valve. :shock:
The only thing that leaves me scratching my head is if you google both these mufflers in the image search engine you can actually look at the internal design and structure. I would think that the flowmaster 40 would actually outflow the super 44 but I guess the chamber in the super 44 uses multiple angles and geometry to allow for more flow.
i have 2 thrush welded on my cutlass with 2.5" duals i wanted an x-pipe but the shop had none.
but the thrush welded mufflers are identical to the flow 40's and for the price of one flow you can get both thrush mufflers, so then maybe you can get two gifts instead of one 😀
I have mine with a stock 305 and flowtech afterburners and its pretty quite and deep ill try to post a vid later after i wash it

I am running with the 40 series on my cutlass and my truck they are about the best sounding ones I have found in my opinion. The truck has 2.5 and the car has 3 and they sound awesome. My only problem with them on the car is ground clerance everytime I take a corner or his a small dip or bump they scrape.
I was looking at my muffler yesterday and noticed a hole in it so I cut if off. The car only has a 260 but it sounds like a hot rod now. I ordered a cheap OEM $40 muffler for it but it won't be here for a week or so. Until then I am going to drive around and be a badass.
