Flowmaster wasn't blown...

[joshhignight@techography.net (joshhignight@techography.net)]

   Due to a busy schedule over the next 3 weeks, the need for my=
 car (without a totally blown apart stock muffler), and my lack=
 of money for shipping the supposed blown flowie off to TT for=
 replacement, I decided to replace my completely blown apart=
 stock 16v muffler with the "blown" flowmaster from the late 85'.=
 

The stock 16v muffler that came on the 87' was literally blown=
 apart after a few weeks of living downstream of the monster. All=
 down the seam including a 2" hole in the middle. I could put my=
 foot comfortably in it...

Apparently something was wrong with the 85', because the flowie=
 doesn't sound blown on the 87'. No baffle rattle yet, and I just=
 drove it home some 20 miles. We'll see, but it seems a lot=
 quieter than I remember. Of course, I was getting used to the=
 migraine inducing blown one though. 

So, for now, I retract all the bad things I said about=
 flowmaster.
