Paulford8 Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 When searching for exhausts all of the sounds clips I found were either Corsa or Dynomax. I made a Magnaflow clip in case anybody wants to hear it. It is louder at lower RPMS, and during acceleration, however at constant RPMs on the interstate you can barely hear it. I went with Magnaflow because of cost. I like it a lot, only issue I have is it leaves that 3rd cat in place were the Corsa eliminates it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojomofo21 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 I got mine for $600 bucks off of amazon and love how clean and well assembled the kit is. My only issue is its not loud enough. I will be fixing that soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Get rid of the 3rd cat and add an X-pipe if the magnaflow doesn't have it already, and it will be much louder. I had that setup in my Flex. My X-pipe section is removable and replaceable with stock 3rd cat & mid-muffler, which are currently installed.

Got5onIt Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 It sounds good and a little on the quiet side. Get the 2.25" magnaflow x-pipe from Amazon and have a muffler shop weld it in place of the 3rd cat & muffler. That's what I did. It definitely deepened the tone.

bpd1151 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Eh.... Not too shabby, a tad bit on the quiet side still for my tastes, by a slight improvement in sound quality over the OEM setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 $1024 from Bandit.Paul, what did you pay for shipping? I paid 789.99 shipped from a place in California. Actually found it for 765 shipped from a place in Canada but I knew it wouldnt arrive for my next track session so I paid a little more to get it right away. Eh.... Not too shabby, a tad bit on the quiet side still for my tastes, by a slight improvement in sound quality over the OEM setup. I think getting rid of that 3rd cat will make it sound meaner. I looked at the NESHO pipe but think I will just have a local guy I know make something. This idea is for down the road though, I need to get those springs installed next!

timbo Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 I got the Magnaflow setup for something like $650-675 shipped, cannot remember who it was. My brother told me to go to some website and put the part number in. No description, but it was the right kit. I too plan to remove the 3rd cat eventually, and will want to do some high flow downpipes as well which should help get me into the Mid-12's. Anyway, I love it, as this is my daily driver and will be the family car, so I needed something that would not drone like most aftermarket exhausts. 3rd cat's gotta go though.

Paulford8 Posted August 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Actually just today I had my 3rd cat replaced by a local place that does a lot of performance car work. I bought the basic 2.5 X pipe that looks like the Magnaflow but is generic on E-bay for $40. They guy charged me $60 for the install, I am pretty happy with it. Even without the cat it is not loud at all on the interstate or at constant speed. Low RPM and accelerating you can hear it but it still isnt all that loud with the cat replaced.

FLIP-4-SHO Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I bought the basic 2.5 X pipe that looks like the Magnaflow but is generic on E-bay for $40. 2.5 inch pipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulford8 Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Another note on the X pipe. It really didnt make the exhaust any louder as I had expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
