Default Did i do good or what!!!!

I just bought a Stainless steel MagnaFlow Exhaust (my cousin works at a muffler warehouse) for 80 dollars..... now i am going to get a custom 3" catback exhaust.......so what do you guys think!!!! Good idea or not......the reason i am doing this because i have LMI (just the muffler not the pipes) and LT headers and i live in California and i have already been harassed by CHP officers.......so........

It's not real clear:
1. What you had
2. What you just got
3. What you have now
4. What you want

Pics would help. Magnaflow is GREAT! For that price, even just the muffler is good. Help us help you!

So what kind of exhaust do you have now? Why go to a custom 3" if you have a Magnaflow?

If he's getting the tips from autozone it'll be better to run no tips at all. Those rust in a month.
