Default Magnaflow exhaust...........

Hello Forum,

I just installed my Magnaflow exhaust today and all that I can say is WOW! Maybe it is my imagination, but my 01 coupe feels quicker, and even if it's not, it sounds WICKED. I'd recommend this exhaust to anyone looking to put a catback on their car. The quality is first rate, the welds are nice, the mufflers, tailpipes, and the quad 4" tips are very nicely polished, and it just looks nice on the car. It only took about 1 1/2 hours to do it too ( that was on a rack though ).

Rob

Did you install the X-pipe also?
We just installed a system w/ X-pipe. It's a very nice system. not too loud and excellent craftsmanship.

I think it may be the best noise vs/ hp exhaust I've seen.

Mike,

Yes, I did install the x-pipe and so far, I'm really happy with it. It sounds like a V-8 performance car should and doesn't have the motorboat sound of other exhausts that I've heard. It has a deep growl to it.

Dave,

No it's not titanium, it's polished stainless steel. Even the muffler clamps are really nice stainless pieces.

Dave,

Sorry, I forgot to tell you the price. I bought mine through a forum vendor named L.A.P.D and would highly recommend them. It was $1050 with the X-pipe next day shipped to your door. I thought that they were pulling my leg about that, as they are in California and I'm in illinois. I ordered it at 12:30 pm Wed. and got it at 1:30 pm on Thurs. I couldn't believe it.
