Default Help me, what exhaust do I have. *Pix*

Well, I just assumed I had the SLP LM. It had the laser cut SLP logo on the Dual/Dual tips.

I had it on a lift and they guy there said this aint SLP's cat-back. It is magnaflow's. Then he wiped off the grime on the muffler, and there it was "Magnaflow".

So my question, is it a hacked magnaflow, slp, or stock catback setup.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Looks like a Magnaflow with Dual/Dual tips? Car might have had the Dual/Dual on it, then someone wanted more sound, but didn't like the z71 tips.

Judging by the welds on the muffler, I'd say someone hacked up a factory system and just jammed in a Magnaflow muffler. It's probably not the full Magnaflow "catback".

Pictures are kinda fuzzy, but it looks like someone bought a magnaflow muffler and had a shop weld it onto the stock inlet pipe, bend up some tailpipes (looks like crush bends from what I can see) and welded on some loudmouth tips.

That pretty much sums it up

Good call, I'll agree on that.

The pipe coming from the Y is a 3in. Had it up on the lift again.

Like someone said, I am guessing it is a Dual/Dual set up from SLP. Might have been to quiet for him so he slapped on a Magnaflow.

It's a "hacked" Magnaflow like has been said, not that there's anything wrong with that. Granted, the full catback has a larger i-pipe than stock, but other than that, it's not hurting anything.
