I <3 the tips. I sold my Borla for the Magnaflow; the Borla came on the car when I bought it, and the hex tips didn't do it for me. ESP recommended Magnaflow (sponsor, East Side Performance in CT) and looking at its price, its ftw.

Look in the external engine section. The Magnaflow CB is currently being worked for better flow and nicer tips. Oxidizr works for Magnaflow and recently posted about this. If you're looking for a Magnaflow, now is the perfect time to wait and see what they come out with.

Yes I read about this and saw the custom exhaust he built. The tips look sick and the Y-pipe with high performance muffler is amazing. Hopefully theyll have something out by summer. Thats when Ill realistically have enough money saved up to get it put on. Im just getting feedback and options now so Im ready to make my choice by early summer.

I have it on my Formula with headers and ORY and there is still a good bit of rasp between 2000-2500rpm. That's just the nature of the ORY regardless of the catback. Some are better than others as far as rasp goes and the Magnaflow is a better one.

LT+ Catted Y+ magnaflow= orgasm inducing sound........ seoriusly though, it sounds soo damn good, i used to run an open cutout because i liked the loudness, but the refinement and tone of the magnaflow is unparalleled.
