I have a Magnaflow catback on my '97 and it sounds pretty darn good and very deep. Def better than the Flowmaster IMO. I dont like it as much as the GMMG on my old '95 but I suppose with Long Tubes it would sound almost or as good

I really like the way mine sounds. It has a nice deep rumble when cruising and a loud mean sound at WOT. No rasp at all.

If I can get a stinking transmission to work I could tell you....I have magnaflow on longtubes with no cat....but am going after transmissoin #3...since the first 2 didn't like the brand new motor! Here is a sound link that I found of the same system as mine....Since I haven't had any luck getting mine going I had to dig around the net to find a sound link so I could hear it :-(

That's how my Loudmouth sounds, but the rasp is more of a gurgle (deeper tone). I like how that Magnaflow sounds, but personally I lurve mine

Magnaflow is the best catback for the money in my opinion and many others. Stainless steel for cheap.
