Thinking about just getting a McCord powerplate, then I'd have the best of both worlds.

I want something that makes power, isn't annoying to my neighbors, but sounds great. I guess I'm crazy.
I changed from Borla to Magnaflow because of rasp. But still had rasp so I added two Magnaflow 18 inchers to the backside with welded on rolled Magnaflow tips. These two bullets eliminated rasp completely.

These bullets look identical to the inside of a Dynomax bullet - straight thru with perforations.

System now is:
ARH 1 7/8 lt's into ARH catted y to Magnaflow catback with two additional 18 inch Magnaflow bullets.

Since I have ground effects you can't see these mufflers at all. Dual Corsa style tips will fit but you would need to use 14 inch instead of 18's like mine. This winter I will buff them out so they will shine like the polished Magnaflow

Sorry but no video for a sound clip. IMO best sound to date after three exhaust systems.
