Does the Magnaflow have a DEEP DEEP tone to it? My flowmaster sounds really bad since I put the headers on, and I mean really bad.

The Magnaflow Catback has a nice deep sound and fits like a glove. Sounds even better with headers.

Does anyone know how the Magnaflow sounds compared to the SLP muffler they put on the Firehawks?

I have a Magnaflow. Great sounding. Deep. - and give it a few miles after new install and the sound gets even sweeter.

One of the top flowing cat-backs too

I like my magnaflow, low rumble at idle but still quiet and when you get on it, it can scream. It has some rasp up top but you will get that with any ory/catback setup unless you get cats or go TDs. Sometimes I wish it was louder but that is what a cutout is for and I am just used to the sound now.
