    yea, probably did look kinda funny... with flows, blowing or putting air to it, it felt like you were blowing through an empty box almost, glasspacks or turbos had a little restriction to it. The air didn't have the same velocity coming out the back of the muffler.

    I had A muffler on my old 72 with a 200 6 . It was called a turbo pack looked like a glass pack but had the low growl of a turbo .And it was pretty loud.

    We have a forklift at work that sounds a lot like that. Sounds pretty gnarly!

    A few years ago a friend gave me a whole chart of flow tests done at !5" pressure:

    2.5" straight pipe was 521 CFM

    2.5" Hooker Aero Chamber was 324 CFM

    2.5" Dynomax Super Turbo was 268 CFM

    2.5" 2 chamber Flowmaster was 249 CFM

    2.5" 3 chamber Flowmaster was 229 CFM
