Description
Overview
The Flowmaster American Thunder Crossmember-Back Exhaust System is built for the driver who wants a complete, ready-to-install dual exhaust upgrade with a deep, powerful voice. Engineered around the acclaimed American Thunder series, this system replaces everything from the crossmember back and pairs proven Flowmaster muffler technology with mandrel-bent tubing for a clean, purposeful setup that both looks and sounds the part.
At the heart of the system are large-cased Super 40 Series performance mufflers, which are known for delivering a moderate interior tone paired with a deep, aggressive exterior sound. That balance makes it ideal for enthusiasts who want their performance heard on the street without an overwhelming drone inside the cab. An included H-pipe balances exhaust pulses and helps eliminate back-rap on deceleration, refining the overall sound quality.
Construction & Design
The complete system is constructed from 2.50-inch mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing built to a durable 16-gauge pipe wall. Mandrel bending preserves consistent pipe diameter through every curve for smooth, efficient flow. The dual mandrel-bent tailpipes exit straight out the back under the rear bumper, giving the vehicle a strong, muscular stance while leaving the choice of exhaust tip style entirely up to you.
