I'm looking at purchasing a Magnaflow Quad Tip Catback Exhaust in the next few weeks. Where would I find the best price? I'm located in Newfoundland, Canada..........Shipping costs from the US??? Any help would be great?

If you are looking at the system with the part number 16723 keep in mind that it is made of 2.5 inch tubing which is the same as stock. The system 15684 is made of 3.0 inch tubing.

Yeah, I'm looking at the quad tip one (2 1/2" I guess ??? ) I prefer the look of the quad tip better than the single tip. Is there much of a difference in having a 3" tubing as apposed to 2.5" ?

The best price I found was at Maryland Speed ($589.95). Fast Toys & WS6 Store were $672.00. Free shipping is only in the US I guess. I'm located in Canada. Not sure what it would cost by the time I pay duty at the border & shipping costs.

bro, youre just paying for the tips. id get the part number 15684 with the big tips, sell them for around 50 bucks, and have an exhaust shop weld u some 2.5" outlets and buy some aftermarket tips. u could save yourself a lot of money. the systems are exactly the same except for the outlet pipes and the tips.

No they aren't both 3.0. Go to Planet Magnaflow. I emailed them and asked them why the difference. They told me that the 2.5" is for just basic bolt on mods to retain some back pressure. The 3.0" system is for further modding like h/c, sc, or nos applications. Planet Magnaflow will list all dimensions of the system.

I think I'd be fine with the 2 1/2" then if I order the Quad tip exhaust. I'm only planning on basic bolt ons, maybe a h/c later. Would I be better off to order the single tip exhaust for about $470 and buy a set of stainless quad tips? Or should I just go with my original plan?
Any recommendations?

buy the tips seperately. I bought my magnaflow cb for $385 shipped off of ebay. That set and the new quad tip cb are EXACTLY the same. Same pipes, same muffler, just the tips are different. If you're cool w/ paying $300 for some tips then go for it.
