Talking Would you be interested in replacing your Magnaflow tips only?

I spoke with a Magnaflow rep today and he said if there was enough interest, they might make available just the tips/tips + pipes to the muffler.

So please vote, post your oppinions, but be heard. Tell as many people as possible about this thread because what we need is numbers. Maybe they can do a limited 'LS1Tech group buy' for those of us who already have the best catback available.

Thanks guys.

Guys, please post up any questions or comments. I am going to be sending this link to Magnaflow to try and drum up some options and support.

I've seen the tips on Bad30thTA's car.. I'd be very interested in swapping the "Cannons" for the dual dual tips.

I wouldnt mind... I ordered the kit for the 93-97s...but later welded on hangers to basically make it like the 98-02s. Ide like it if I could buy the 98-02 tips complete with hangers so I could make it fit alittle better.

They will probably be pricey though Im sure....

YES YES and YES!!! I haaaaate my cannon tips! I would be more than willing to buy new tips that include the pipe to the muffler. That's the only thing that's keeping me from replacing the tips right now is the fact that the tips go so far back and I would have to extend the smaller piping closer towards the new tips.

I love the sound of my Magnaflow catback but hate the look of the cannons hanging there on my Z. I will be replacing these at some point in the near future, but I prefer just a nice polished SMALLER tip, not the dual-dual. To me the dual-dual looks good on a TA but looks a little funny on a Camaro. Just my .02.

I would of bought magnaflow if they had better tips, I can't stand them on T/A's, but like them on Camaro's. I think more people would buy this set up over the hooker cat back if this was an option.

I think on Trans Am's these would be the tips I would get. But I like the "canon" look on Camaro's. I am a little biased. Maybe they can offer both tips as an option. Throw that idea at him.

I'd buy them, but put them on my SLP catback. They look killer.

Wanna buy mine? I bought the Magnaflow for the sound, and hacked off the tips before it was even installed.

I went with Hooker strictly due to the Magnaflow tips not fitting the TA. If they would offer different tips to fill the bumper inserts of the TA, I feel they would greatly enhance their customer base.

Sign me up for new tips. Need to get rid of these cowboy pipes. "Play a game I like to call just the tip, just for minute, just to see how it feels"

I would defintely buy the dual tips, I got tired of the "cannons" really fast. I hate them now; I always ask myself , "WTF was i thinking???"
