Ok guys...who has the magnaflow system and how do you like it. Is it loud enough when you want and can you still hear your music and talk to someone. Looking at this system cause I have been told you get the best of both worlds. Nice sound but still not too loud inside the car. Where did you buy your system and how much. Everywhere I went so far its bout $1600 installed. Inputs please.

I have a magnaflow on mine but bought it that way. With the stock manifolds it's not very loud at all. You can't hear it inside unless the a/c and radio are off and your on the gas. Outside you can hear the car comming in just regular driving. Not real loud but has a good sound. I'm getting some headers installed this weekend and am hoping it will make it a tad louder.

Not to confuse Magnaflow and Flowmasters...

I have the Magnaflow exhaust and am very happy with it. I want to be able to hear the exhaust when accelerating (nothing painful, but hear it), and have it pretty quiet when cruising. It meets my expectations.

This is not a loud exhaust by any means. Louder than stock. Great for cruising (which is what I like to do).

I've had the Magnaflows and x-pipe on for two years now and if anything it sounds better now than when it was brand new.
Great idle, nice cruize, and WOT lets you know it's there.
