Default Magnaflow exhaust

Called Cerra Racing today and they are now a Magnaflow dealer. I purchased the complete cat-back from them for $1179 and they will give me %10 off of that because I am a Forum member!! :conehead

That's about the same as LAPD's Forum Mall price of $1050. Good deal considering it includes the X-pipe:

I would say the magna flow system is the quieter of the two especially at idle. I was just at the So Cal Dyno Day at R&D dyno. There We had the oppertunity to hear several systems one after the other.

I heard a few other people at the dyno day commented that the Magnaflow system was quiet at idle as well.

.......you're correct Sir, BUT USD1050 includes also FREE SHIPPING in the US, if I am not wrong and The LAPDs offer is still running!! Isn't that a Deal, isn't it?

Give Shawn a ring, it would not hurt! For sure he will assist you greatly......as always!!

....and: this specific Exhaust solution, including a well engineered Cross-over Pipe, is definetely THAT solution when it comes to Built-quality, Engineering, Airflow, deep tone Sound (almost in idle) and Power!! The whole set is truly a JEWEL you would not likely to miss any longer!!

You will soon also discover, that your radio/CD-set might start to rust all over, because the VERY BEST music now streams to your ears right from behind of your racer. You allways have the choice: every 1'000rpm change of power, you will have a truly varying PowerSound. Higher than 3'000rpm (best concerto in 2nd, A4), all the HELL breaks loose.....BEWARE if you are somewhat of faint hearted. :smash: :smash: :eek: :eek: :crazy:

Joe,

You are right on the money in your wonderful description of this system. I have it as well and absolutely love it. The quality is first rate. I made one small change to it which is illustrated in this post:

Patches,

You really shoot the little point to the "i" !! (you may excuse my wording, but I hope you understand what I mean.......oh well, my english......). BIG BRAVO to YOU!! So, with your brilliantly engineered exhaust enhancement you MUST go commercial, DO IT. This is an Order :yesnod: :yesnod: :blueangel:

I also am pleased you share my thoughts and feelings. May other's, being actually in the evaluation, understand, this system is worth every penny indeed. But I also acknowledge, all those things are very very personal taste and truly subjective.

Ok, I again am biased, but this is the fault of The LAPD and the helpful hand in my background, my dear spouse, which gladly assisted me to enhance our racer with that kind of sound it deserves.

Shawn from The LAPD was not, was never wrong!! He gave his inspirated words to all of us for the promotion of this M-F system and all his promises to this system - and everything turned into TRUE TRUTH and REALITY!! Uncomparable though..............

Joe.
