Description
Overview
The Flowmaster American Thunder Cat-back Exhaust System is engineered to transform your truck’s exhaust note and flow with a proven combination of Flowmaster performance components. Built around the renowned 50 Series HD muffler, this complete cat-back kit delivers an aggressive yet moderate tone that sounds serious under throttle while staying comfortable for everyday driving. If you want a bolt-on upgrade that looks and sounds the part, the American Thunder series is a benchmark name in performance exhaust.
Key Benefits
At the heart of the system is the 50 Series HD muffler, a black-finished, 24.00-inch overall length unit featuring a center inlet and dual outlet configuration with a 3.00-inch outlet diameter. The dual tail pipe layout gives your rig a purposeful stance and a fuller, more aggressive sound profile. The silver pipes provide a clean, durable appearance under the truck, and the embossed tip logo adds a finished, factory-plus look at the bumper.
Installation is designed to be straightforward because the system uses your factory hangers, so it drops into the original mounting locations without the guesswork of relocating brackets. This is a true cat-back setup, meaning it replaces the exhaust from the catalytic converter back and includes the muffler in the kit.
