Maybe Magnaflow is doing the PS3 Christmas hype thing ...

OK - I've got one MCSS available to the highest bidder!!!

(Actually, he'e got a GXP in his sig, that system isn't available, but there are over 35 each of the Chevy's available)

if someone picked it up for less then 725, they might get in a wee bit of trouble.

Had mine on there for about 6K miles, the sound fits the image of the car. You can tell at start-up and idle it's a V8. Caught the guys at the local muffler shop by surprise that it wasn't a 6 cyl.

Once I disable the DoD will look at removing resonator.

On pricing, simple principle: bulk purchase = price reduction. I'll bet Summit is in the top 10 of Magnaflow distributors, maybe even top 5.

The Hogan DP?

W/O the resonator the DoD should sound like a tuner fart can exhaust. Do not remove unless you are disabling the DoD.

Hexx said on another post he removed the resonator and likes the sound.

You're 2 steps ahead of me on the mods right now, looking to change the downpipe and program, then remove the resonator. Can you answer a couple of ???'s:

How's the tune working for you?

What brand of downpipe you using?

Thanks!
