Default Which Magnaflow Exhaust

I've decided on Magnaflow, but can't decide on the new 4-tip exhaust or the Magnaglow "Cannons".

Which do you suggest?

Id go with the 'cannons' as you say(actually I already did)
Didnt see the point in going with something that was near double the price for less pleasing tips. Maybe someone else can justify the price?

agree, buy the cheaper catback, if you dont like the tips, buy different ones and still save cash

I would have loved the dual dual system. But I couldnt justify spending twice the money on the same system with the only difference being the tips.

Some people dont like the single tips but I have actually grown to like them. I really like that the whole system is stainless and the muffler and tips are polished. They look real good when you polish them up and keep them clean.

yeah the dual dual are expensive, i looked through their catalog and i seen the dual dual tips similar to the ones they offer in the catback and they wanted 219 or something like that, each one, so 400+ just for tips

Thanks for the help. I wasn't quite sure if there were any performance differences between the two.

I would love to have the four tips. I bought my car with the magnaflow cat back already, guess it saved me money, but the four tips look better I think. Don't know if its worth another $350 though.
