Hi Stephan-
Flowmasters are exceptionally loud. I had one on a Z about six
years ago, and I still hear its horrid nasal boom in my sleep....
Turbos OTOH are mellow and quiet. I heartily recommend the
Dynomax Super Turbo.
I 'discovered' that muffler placement makes a heckuva difference
in noise output - the longer the tailpipe, the quieter. I had a
'66 1600 with the Dynomax under the driver's seat, and it was
nearly silent. Had a similar installation on my 521, and it is
also very quiet (also a Dynomax). My 240Z, with the muffler at
the back, is much MUCH louder; with a buzzy-type racecar scream.
FWIW

'69 2000 header/2"/Glasspack (super loud)
'71 PL521 cast iron manifold/2"/Dynomax (silent but deadly;-)
