Default Magna Flow Exhaust

Is there anyone on here that is totally stock with MagnaFlow or Hooker Exhaust that lives in the Dallas or Denton area? I'm looking into both of those so I'd like to hear what they sound like. I've been to the Ls1sounds website, but I still like to hear it in real life. Thanks.

magnaflow is a great exhaust...just installed it last night. Im not stock but it sounds very clean and refined. Im also running a catted y. It sounds very deap but still sounds great up top. It is made very well. No drone at all on cruising speeds. I highly suggest it

Mines not stock either, but I'm very happy with the Magnaflow. Tim@eadperformance has great prices on them too.

IMO corsa sounds absolutetly wicked on the stock manifolds and Y, they sound good with the headers too but make sure you put cats on your Y when u decide to add headers or it will get very raspy.
Magnaflow sounds good on the stock manifolfds and sounds pretty good with headers and cats, but nothing beats true-duals but true duals are loud.
in terms of loudness the corsa and magnaflow will be slightly louder than stock, once headers are added they become even louder but i dont think loud enough to be annoying or attract the soundcops, especially with cats if u decide to run em!

No corsa is a good bit more. I've heard corsa on my friend's car before he sold it... had corsa, cats, LTs... sounded unbelievable IMO. Can't comment on magnaflow, but I have TDs and love 'em. Good luck.
