Default For those who think Magnaflow isn't loud...

I happened to get have gotten pulled over the other day for "loud muffler" not loud exhaust haha, so that is evidence to those nay-sayers out there that the Magnaflow gets loud with your choice of LTs and ORY. I might start looking around for something else, this muffler is RASPY on the DECEL and through 2k-2800 rpms.

Is there anyone out there running a Bassani catback on LTs and ORY?

Sounds pretty tame I need to step it down a notch I think. If anyone can give me any info about their experience with a Bassani catback or Random Tech catback that would be awesome!

Thanks,
Robby

Magnaflow on stock headers and y-pipe is too quiet. On LT's and ORY... that's a different story, a little louder, but not loud enough

Not looking for a Flowmaster at all, not a big fan. I'm looking for another straight through design like the Magnaflow but something a little less raspy with my setup. Still looking for any owners with Bassani!

My Magnaflow was extremly quiet before I removed my cats. It sounded really good, but still quiet, I can't swallow the price of headers + ORY, but it souds awesome without cats, I'm very happy with it now. And I love how it sounds with cars that have Headers + Ory.

My Magnaflow is much quieter than the TSP Rumbler catback I was running.
I've never been hassled for either.
