Since my mufflers are rotting to hell after only 5 yrs, I am looking at installing the Magnaflow Cat back system, but really... $840.00??? Plus they are claiming a gain of 22hp ..... it that reasonable? I already have the c/l Hogan installed so I should definetly see an improvment if I get the catback.. right??

Thanks guys, I will look into those other places....... I just started looking and the $840.00 figure was the most prevalent number.. Are you guys running the Magnaflow resonator as well??

I am still running the res. i think it still sounds good with it. not really loud inside the car but has a nice rumble outside especially when you give it some throttle

Usually theres a seller on ebay thats like we can't say the brand blah blah with the same product number as the magnaflow kit. The make offer ones will accept a lot less too.

I've had mine for 4 years now and they still look new top and bottom. I try to wash my car once a week during the winter at a automatic touchless with undercarriage.

Not trying to hijack but I removed my resonator and its raspy when i let off after revving it. Would getting just the magnaflow mufflers get rid of the raspy sound? With the cutout open however it sounds AMAZING.

You've got sponsors here who will try to get you as good of a deal as other dealers. PM me an advertised price of another dealer and I'll see if I can match it. If I can't do it, I'll tell you straight up. But, I'll sure try for you guys.
