Default muffler thats a x

as the title says, has anyone heard of this and used it?

i was at the shop today and he said magna flow made a muffler that had a x pipe in it. does this sound legit? i mean,it seems like a good deal, does the same thing as an x pipe but also saves me room for my 240sx.

its basically a x pipe with it resonated. sounds good to me.....you?

How is it built?

Does the muffler have TWO inlets and TWO outlets? If not, this is not the same as a *real* X-pipe crossover.

Post a pic & part number if you can, I'd like to see it.

Looks interesting. I've never used one myself, but if you have limited space and need to condense things as much as possibile, this looks like a decent compromise.

you'd probly be happy with that then. on my truck, the ultraflow wasnt loud, but had a real nice tone. definately had a unique sound. but when i'd lay into it, people knew i was there haha

what did you run exactly?, just the muffler and pipes, or did you have a cat or anything?

its not very comparable. it was on my silverado w/ a 6.0. but it was dual in, dual out, but just dumped right out of the muffler. i had cats and everything. it was stock pipe to. on those trucks, they run dual pipe into the factory muffler, then single out. i just cut the factory muffler off and put the ultraflow in
