Default Magnaflow exhaust

I know exhaust systems get covered alot, but anyone have or heard the MagnaFlow system? Didn't find much on this board. Someone said they're about as close to the '67 427 BB sound you're going to get on the C5.

On my Z06 i run a Magnaflow exhaust and x-pipe.Gained 8 h/p and 14 tq on a Dynojet -sae corrected. I have Corsa Indys on My coupe--a completely different sound. To my ear?? Magnaflow is deeper and not as loud as Corsas.On hard pulls it sounds alot like my 409 and Stage 2 455 Buick,The beauty of sound is in the ear of the beholder.The quality of Magnaflow is equal to aircraft,the stainless steel mufflers are polished along with the tips.

Thanks. Is 8HP/14Tq increase typical of people that have tested aftermarket exhausts?
