I love my Magnaflow it sounds calm with a nice rumble at idle, but when you hit it it let's you know. It is not overly loud or quite it just sounds good.

Post specs on your true dual setup. I currently have a Y off my longtubes, into a magnaflow catback and was looking at a dual exhaust setup options.

The magnaflow sounds AWSOME, a bit loud, but sounds great.

IDK much about it, it was on the car when I got it. 3" Y, 3" to the axle, and over the axle into a magnaflow muffler with dual 3" round chrome tips out the back. I can see if I can find a model number on it.

Im down for the trade, as I have a set of tips here at the house if I feel like having something out the back. I do need to fix 1 section of pipe where someone along the lines had cut and pieced it back together (clamps and expanded joints). I have some 3" pipe here at the house, I can probably fix it with, but that is up to you since you were talking about doing a cutout.

I have a plug that goes in it, uses an allen wrench to get it out.

Does your exhaust dump straight onto the ground, or are they pointed outward?

yeah, if you have them i will take them. the TA is the wife's DD, so it has to maintain some amount of respectability inside the car LOL. She does miss having 450hp though, since the LS1 died, 350hp just isnt enough lol.

I am busy Saturday, and Sunday is Funday Sunday at Orlando Speedworld. If you like I can meet you before or after Funday Sunday, since I will be in Orlando. Although, if you want to meet Sunday, I know there is NO chance of me getting the pipe fixed. I can provide a pipe to take the place though. If you want to do it like Tomorrow, we can do it at my house, but if not then I cant get over that way until Sunday.
