Default MAGNAFLOW is on!

Well after lots of debate, I went with the MAGNAFLOW. I was going to get the GMMG and put my stock manifolds and Y back on but after thinking about it I wanted to leave them. If I could have put a GMMG on my credit card I would have picked one up but I did not have $700 that i could just toss away at this time. Got the MAGNAFLOW and man this thing is quiet! I guess after headers, ORY & loudmouth then open headers anything is quiet LOL! Has a nice deep tone and no rasp and vibration big plus in my book! Was kind of hard to get the tail pipes even but I got them looking good. Only other negative thing is I hate those 3.5" pipes on my Formula they don't look near as good as the SLP dual dual ones did. Any how overall I am happy with it and would recommend it, More to the Camaro guys I think for the look of the tail pipes....

My brother's got magnaflow on his near stock ws6. I think it sounds really good. It's quiet and then opens up really nicely at WOT. I think the tips look good, the only thing is they should have been about 2 inches longer IMO.

Excellent choice for a mostly stock exhaust set-up. My old car made more power through it than my cut-out. Enjoy.
