I am buying a truck. Should I put on flowmasters with a 2″ lift(outside) or work on the inside?
I can’t decide if I should save my money and work on the inside. Install seat covers and a new radio
or put flowmasters and a 2" suspension lift with bigger tires

Do you want to go fast or look good?

ive always been one to make my vehicles look good and sound good from the outside first, its what everyone sees and functional to what you want. interior you can take your time and do little by little cause even if you have tore up seats, you can always put on some cheapy seat covers till you get the work done on it.

i would go with just the lift and no flow master and then get the speaker with two big 12 inch kickers and you would be setwith bass which is way better then exhaust but if your ever doing a car go with exhaust. trucks just arnt right with exhaust. lift, paint job, and then save money for maintence problems just in case something goes wrong

I welded in my own Flowmasters.
Saved how much?
Probably $500, or 13 happy hours.
Real easy with MIG.
See, you don’t even mention what Truck.
WTF, what am I driving?
If you can’t do standing burn outs, you don’t have enough power for larger tires.
See how easy that is. Paint it pink & give it to her.
$4k for wheels & rubber, and now it’s slower than a stuck fart.

Apply Real-Time Engineering.
Mufflers sound good, But No Way Do they make free HP.
Only SuperChargers do, making sea level out of 10,000 feet.
Turbo’s are a joke, and you’ll find that out, on tour at Google.
I did it for real, in funny bikes.
It lasted for ever for 37 seconds at 80lbs of boost.
Rebuild the engine again. Just like last week, and the week before.
Super Chargers are Man Machines..
Nothing more to say.
Except your going the wrong way.
Dropped Rides get the ride plus paint and wheels.
Raised, who cares, you can’t drift it on freeway ramps at 93 mph,
or it would flip.
You want hauling Vette, F1 Handling, not Walmart shopping cart that can’t make turn one
at isle 2 & 3.



It depends on how old your truck is and what you want to do with it.
Typically spending money on lift kits, stereos, and other accessories that modify it from the stock design actually decrease the value of the truck.
But if it’s something you really want to do, go for it.
Flomasters will make it sound deep and throaty and will improve performance a little bit.
