How much would installation of a single flowmaster cost?

This would be on a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GTS (v6) and also would it sound good or would i just be wasting my money?|||a flowmaster system done correctly will increase your horsepower, low end torque, and fuel mileage simply because the increase of efficiency.





a flowmaster works right with the right size pipes depending on the size of the engine. the reason for the size of the pipes is to keep the right amount of exhaust pressure to the muffler, because a flowmaster is designed to lets say, "suck" the exhaust out of the engine.





i would reccommend a Catback system on yours. with that V6, your headpipe would probably be 2.5 inches, and the tailpipe would be 2.25 inches (in diameter of course). the reason for the downsize in tailpipe is for the pressure reasons i said above, it kinda acts like a funnel which makes the exhaust flow more efficiently.





overall it should cost about 350-400 bucks depending on what muffler shop you go to. exhaust work is mostly custom fabrication, and you definitely get what you pay for. i would not settle for less than perfect because exhaust work is very meticulous.





with your cats and resonator, i don't think the flowmaster would contribute to too much noise. at idle, it should be really quiet, but you'll get a deeper, mellow tone when you drive. hope this helps.|||I always have suggested, for exhaust sound questions, to find a similar car to your own, and if you like it, ask them what exhaust they are running.





As for cost, it should be about $25-$40 depending on the quality and ability of the shop, NOT including the cost of the muffler itself.
