Default Magnaflow muffler questions

I'm thinking of getting the 3"in/dual 2.5" out muffler. How does it flow compared to other mufflers like it? How does it sound? Anyone had any experience with them?

I had one on my 98 Z28 for about 3 years. Sounded good, flows better than a Flowmaster. Not too loud except with off road Y pipe.

it flows awesome.. if you look into the muffler its like a straight shot through <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> However I thought it would be much louder. I have LT's, offroad, cam and it sounds stock at idle.. and about low medium loud at WOT. Its probably the best muffler out there though! Its definitly louder than stock <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

but loud for me if having my cutout open, so yes the muffler is very quiet to that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

BTW:i have a few pics of the muffler on my site in sig... look under pictorial

I had the same setup. I put the magnaflow after I had my ORY-pipe put on. With the cutout open it sounded absolutely great. But it was way to quiet when the cut out was closed. Once I put my cam in the car, it sound horrible. So I changed it out to a Spintech exhuast, and now it's the most crisp, and most unique sound. It's one of the least restrictive exhaust on the market. Good Luck
