hello i just had a magnaflow muffler installed on my 02 ws6 ..i had a corsa catback the corsa muffler was puked and had a very anoying rattle all the way up to 2300 rpm(nice welding corsa) only after 3000 miles....and they will only replace to orginal owner with a recipt,witch im 2nd owner no paper trail...the corsa did sound nice besides the loose baffle,i was just wondering if the magnaflow will get louder in time ?? thanks

ps anyone have a corsa recipt? id still like to swap it out

Pretty much any muffler gets louder after a while.

if ya wanna make it louder quick go grab a screw driver and start bashin holes through the muffler

I can't see how it would get louder unless its some kind of glasspack style muffler?

over time the packing wears out and lets more sound go through

Magnaflow + LT's and ORY = one sexy sound

I hope it starts to sound better because I finally decided on Magnaflow so keep us updated. I was going to go LM but I'm EVENTUALLY going to get headers/ory and I dont need the cops noticing me more than they already do

I have I Magnaflow catback on my car and it got slightly louder after having it on for a month or so, but not much. It's definitely one of the quietest catbacks out there. Since then, I've added longtubes and a ORY and it's still really quiet cruising around unless I get on it. I think I'm going to switch to true duals dumped with flows.

My bro has Corsa on his SS and a baffle got real loose and was rattling like crazy (unacceptable for a $850 exhaust). We literally reached inside the muffler, felt the loose part and ripped that sucker outta there. No more rattle and the sound stayed bascially the same, only got a little louder. Your not the only other person ive heard this happen to, apparently its a major flaw in design and not a fluke type of thing.

I had Magnaflow on my Trans Am for several years (currently in the prossess of putting on true duals). The only time it got loud was at WOT, other than that its an excellent choice for a tame daily driver sound. Throw on some LT's and then ive heard the sound goes up a notch.

when you stand on it. thats the beatuty of magnaflow mufflers. quiet most the time, untill you want it to be loud and you just give it some gas

this man know's what it's about.

I've had 3 setups on the LT/ORY setup so far, and this is by far my favorite.

Nothing beats Magna Flow, and it being quite on Idle\low rpm's is what makes it my favorate, alot of ppl think ooh, its just another LT1 and its not even loud.

Yeah it is quieter at first, but with a cutout or an o/r exhaust(the Magnaflows on the cobra are loud!!) will increase the sound.

Magnaflows have a straight through design, with I believe metal packing inside. Took mine a few hundred miles before it opened up and the true sound came to surface. Figure anywhere between 400-600 miles would be my guess, maybe less if you get on it all the time.
