Another Flowmater Q, how is the interior noise??

[SHOntell]

I would like to know the interior noise level with these muffs, is it very noticable, moderate or not much at all? I would like to hear it but not to much. At times I will have my family in the car for trips and I don't want it to keep my 2 year old awake the whole time or wake him up when I accelerate.
Furthermore, will the exhaust tone with these muffs be good enough if I keep the resonator on, or do I need to remove it to get the whole effect?
I want sound from my car, I just don't want it too keep my son from sleeping etc.

Someone please let me know, I need to know if 40 series muffs are going to be too loud for my son to handle in the car. I have an open cone and from what I understand,that is louder than Bullet straight flow muffs when the secondaries kick in. Please let me know. I am in a bidding war on Ebay!!

If you don't want it tooo loud,just have the Flows installed,and leave the resonator inm place. Without the res.,the car is a bit louder inside. As to how loud it is in the backseat,I've never ridden in the back of my OWN car

Thanks, I am guessing it cant be that bad, let me know if you decide to sit inback with the car on and how it sounds, I think I will just get them and say the **** with it

The borlas I have on my car just add a little exhuast presence below 4k RPMS. I'm running the stock intake setup and no resonator on the exhuast and I cannot hear the exhuast after 4k RPMS. I'm not a fan of flowmasters but hey I would do it, just keep the stock tips.

SHOntell, a great **** for the SHO is the Magnaflow that I run... Your babies will sleep because there is no drone. It registers betwen OEM and Flowmaster..See Magnaflow.com.

lol, thanks, I'll check it out. I chose not to go with the flowmasters. Is there a particular Magnaflow muffler/part number I should be aware of? Let me know,

Thanks,

I have the 11235 ...2.25 Inlet/Outlet aluminized steel. Shepherd Mims on the V8 site has some other type that he runs. Course he has 4 Japanese racing tips to push the exhaust through
