Worth the swap?? Dual/Dual to Magnaflow.... I am thinking of swapping the D/D muffler for a Magnaflow muffler....it would be the direct replacement muffler, 3" in, dual 2.5" out crossflow.
Is it worth it to swap? I will have JetHot headers and a Hooker ORY.
I dont have the Y yet so I havent heard my car through the D/D, but how will they compare to each other?? I want something mellow with a deep tone on idle...

You will not pick up any performance, but you will get increased Rumble with the Magnaflow.

I specifically ditched the Magnaflow for the D/D because it sounded better. The magnaflow had too much rasp from the headers for my taste. IMO, the Dual/Dual is the nicest sounding exhaust out there.
