That is the exact reason i went with magnaflow over flowmaster no raspy grossness lol except for that it quiets down my cam lol oh well thats why DMH is in buisness right

And if you are implying in your last statement that you can't blame his catback for hindering some of the sound then you aren't up to par on some of this stuff
Exactly and well put. There are several threads on here about how quiet the Magnaflow is. And +1 on the cc503 and GM847 comparison. Night and day.

Maybe you guys have a new Magnaflow system, or something. If you're standing behind mine whlie it's idling, you have to talk LOUD to hear each other. And when I get on it, it's nothing short of obnoxious.

Sounds like we have different exhausts.

My Magnaflow is WAYYYYYYYYYY louder than my Flowmaster.

I don't have to do a search, I OWN the damn catback. It's loud. But it's also very old, so maybe that's why.

No ****?! True duals?! Who would have thought that would have been louder.


I guess the newer Magnaflow sucks. Mine sounds great.

And just for comparison, my flowmaster and my magnaflow...

Same camera, so you can tell the Magnaflow is louder.

Hell, maybe it's a regional thing! Everyone around here that has Magnaflow on their car is LOUD.

It's leaking alright... right out the *** end. lol

I'm not comparing ****. Just showing that MY Magnaflow isn't quiet. I posted a video of Stealth Formula's car, also, with the SAME EXACT CAM, and it sounds badass!
