Default Who said Magnaflow was quiet ? *video inside*

Who was it that said Magnaflow was too quiet ?

I made this quick video over the weekend. Sound quality was SOO much better in 720p but I had a hard time uploading it and the quality suffered a bit.

A little raspy but i'm adding a powerstick to the intermediate pipe soon. I didn't think to open the cutout for the video.

I kind of like the little bit of rasp.. its not hillbilly glasspak sounding at all. Just enough to talk back a little... I like it.

If your not planning on going with a cam or heads soon try the LM1 or LM2 setup. Sounds awesome with a catted ypipe.

that's what I figured. I have an offer from a local shop to do a true dual with xpipe and dynomax bullets after i get my headers installed... was wondering if that would sound good.. i cant find a setup like that on my application. LS1sounds doesnt have an all stock motor with that exhaust so I cannot compare the different sounds..

I want my setup to be: 2.5-3" TDs, longtubes, xpipe, bullets, dumped

anyone have this setup that i can hear?

edit, I found a couple that are close enough...

Interested in the rest of your exhaust setup. Granted I'm only bolt ons but that seems a lot louder than my magnaflow catback with 1 7/8 longtubes, ory, and 3" cutout in the I pipe. Maybe I just need a cam and or head package lol.

A cam will definitely make your exhaust louder.

NICE! My magnaflow sounds sick after my EPS cam went in. A bump stick really wakes it up.

i loved my magnaflow but it is the most quiet of all the systems iv had. cutout (that was never closed) xpipe with bullets dumped, magnaflow and now Borla (with no plate). I also liked the look of the magnaflow the most
