Jojomofo21 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I am running a magnaflow catback and was wondering if it would be compatible with a nesho mid pipe? I know it may not be a straight bolt up but I was just wondering if it would fit. Anyone running this setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I AM! I have a pair of Magnaflows that were installed by a local muffler shop, using the stock tips. A year later, Kirk at NESHO sent me the x-pipe mid-pipe with extra flanges so this same muffler shop could install it with the option of removing and re-inserting the stock mid-pipe simply as a bolt in. The mid-pipe fits both the SHO and the Flex/MKT, as the exhaust is the same until you get to the rear axle. The front comes with flanges, to bolt in. the back can either be welded in, or modified to bolt in as I have had done. It definitely has more growl... but I have no sound clips. Based on logging and e-mail tuning with Torrie @ Unleashed Tuning, it appears that my usable boost levels (3 Bar tunes) has gone up. This was a pleasant surprise, as most aftermarket exhausts seem to be mostly "Noise Fluff"! I am also having issues with front traction at the strip, which is why I am shortly going to be testing Drag Radials on the front, for the track. I don't have a pix of the actual pipe, but when I get back to FL, I can jack up the car and take a pix, and can also get a pix of the stock section with flanges.

Jojomofo21 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Thanks for the response. I am actually running the full magnaflow system and had to cut the stock pipes about 18" behind the 3rd muffler to bolt it up. I was wondering if anyone had done something like that. Here's a link to the system. http://m.magnaflow.com/02product/shopexd.asp?zone=all&id=3626 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoBrick Bob Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 So.. this really means that their catsback system is an elongated axleback system... When I added my axle back magnaflow mufflers, there was no complete system available for either the SHO or the Flex, like there is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
