Question Muffler question

I knew this car had aftermarket exhaust .. it says Flo-Pro on muffler. It sounds like a flowmaster .. do y'all know if it is by flowmaster?? Sounds really good on the car, little loud and does not sound like a 4 cyl car at all.

flow pros are generic flowmasters...buy youd be better off using a turbo muffler of some sort...turbo cars do not need much back pressure like a naturally aspirated car does... the less, the better...flowpros and flowmasters sound good but youd get better performance from a turbo muffler...plus they sound just as good, if not better? i had cheap 20 dollar raptor turbo mufflers on my 88tc with turndowns and it sounded like my friends stock 93 mustang with turndowns..

If you want less backpressure, then would a glasspack be along the right lines?

I'm using a Dynomaxx Super Turbo 3" and it is pretty decent. Good flow but not super loud.
