this is what you are getting?
60 Series Delta Flow - Three Chamber Mufflers
The 60 Series incorporates Flowmasters patented "Delta Flow" technology to produce a nice mellow sound for your sport compact car & Truck. A larger diameter tailpipe will create a deeper tone both inside and outside the vehicle. Constructed of 16 gauge aluminized steel and fully mig-welded for maximum durability.
this is what I have
This two chamber design incorporates Flowmasters patented "Delta Flow" technology. The "Delta" deflectors result in increased scavenging for better performance and reduced interior resonance over the standard 40 series with a nice growl outside the vehicle. Sounds great on late model performance cars with catalytic converters. Constructed of 16 gauge aluminized steel and fully mig-welded for maximum durability.
I have been really happy with the sound. Most people have stated you are not going to get much performance from the A/B muffler; so do not expect any miracles. The thing you can count on is a nice deep tone, that makes the 2.0 sound more like a V-6. Not too excessive cabin noise, and not ricey from the outside. Go with a nice tip though; also have the installer put a "U" bend in the exhaust prior to the muffler to help with back pressure. If not, you could actually lose power; that was what I was told by the Muffler shop anyways!

Bout to buy one asap, but would some feedback from someone who already has it..

yeah i noticed some increase in power, and hopefully ill go to a dyno sometime with the Import car club at my school. I dont really know how to describe it, but there definitely was a little power increase. and eventually, when i get money, i will cut off the 2 other mufflers/resonators in between the cat and flowmaster muffler.

I highly doubt you gained noticeable power with just a muffler, the very way modern engines work make that unlikely/impossible. What you are likely experiencing is a placebo effect resulting from the increased noise. As long as it sounds nice though, more power to you.
