Default Which exhaust??!! Need help!!

Thinking of either magnaflow, borla, or loudmouth II? I will be removing the stock Y-pipe and installing the SLP Y-pipe (2 1/2") along with the catback system.

Really with picking catbacks it's all in the sound, each person likes there own thing so make up your own mind. Fit and finish all of those catbacks are well made so no worries no matter what you pick.

Also with out headers the SLP Y pipe isn't really too useful. Better to wait till you upgrade to get a highflow cat setup Y pipe or a Off road Y.

IMO don't bother with the SLP y-pipe, the stock one flows just fine, unless you just want the catless sound (save the $ for headers/y-pipe combo later down the road). Of the three listed, I'd pick magnaflow.

magnaflow sounds pretty good, youre going to get a lot of rasp with an ory...id go get aa catted one..they dont really hurt that much performance if youre staying with a mild setup in the future...even then

ory = off-road ypipe = ypipe with NO cats

I vote Magnaflow too. It was awesome on my firebird with jba headers. Subtle sounding at idle and low revs, and roars at WOT.

Default Magnaflow

Just ordered the Magnaflow today. Paid only $345.00 shipped. Good price, right?
