Default Magnaflow

Well i ordered my exhaust and it finally came yesterday. I put it on tonight and couldn't be happier with the sound and quality of the system. The hardest part was taking off my old rusted exhaust. Can't wait until I do long tube headers and ORY, just gotta get the money. All in all I love the new system.

Magnaflow is my personal favorite, fitment is spot on and it sounds really good(although quiet at lower rpms). Enjoy the system!

Good exhaust bro. You should get a sound clip up. I think magnaflow is great.

Magnaflow is the best exhaust around for this reason i think. Nice a quiet for driving around, but nice and loud in the upper RPMs for a mean tone. I couldn't be happier with mine either.

at idle its really not that much louder if any, but when you are driving around, it has a deeper tone. At WOT it sounds pretty mean. I got the one with just two single tips. I'm not a big fan of the dual tips, unless they are on a T/A.

As long as they are louder then stock thats good. I have a T/A so the quad tipped ones are needed. But I did hear that they are quieter then the regular kit you have

I got magnaflow also. Got mine for $311 Shipped Brand New for LT1Searched around found best price.

Dunno why LS1 catback is more. Back of cars are the same. All they did was put different hangers on the Ls1 Catback it looks like.

I've been staring at my AR headers, my Magnaflow catback, my LS6 intake, and my plugs/wires for almost 5 months now. I keep meaning to install it all...

I'm assuming you are talking about the monster looking 3 1/2" tips, I had them for awhile and they give it a good tone.

Oh and if your worried about the volume then just wait until you get LTs and then you will have Magnaflow good sound with a little more volume...
