The Magnaflow is as good a bang for the buck as it gets. HKS is nice but prolly no going to give any extra power etc... The name says high power but..........

a muffler won't change your performance unless you change the piping... it's just going to fart.

Look at my thread on the RRM Magnaflow. It's in the ralliart general- RRM Catback Review. That might add some info to make your choice .

^ +1 million, Jay I think come spring your going to have one of the sexiest lancers out. Can't wait for the CF pics!

Edit: Your car is Graphite Grey isn't it? And will have CF just like mine won't it? GG looks best with CF but then again I am partial.

yeh i bought the universal muffler, and got custom piping done. any muffler shop will do it. I like the canister look better, than the mangaflow muffler style. u can order this at any local proformance shop too. Very popular item

156-A003 Polished Turbo Version - 75mm inlet/115mm tip <-----
156-A008 Polished NA Version - 60mm inlet/90mm tip


http://www.apexi-usa.com/product_exh...=241&pageNum=1


I got the turbo one becuz i like the bigger outlet lol
When i brought the muffler to shop, the store owner said, "man that thing is huge!"

Apexi would have to just be a universal.

For Ralliart Catback only RRM, and I guess HKS fits but I still not seen an HKS one for the Ralliart.

My RRM Axle Back axle back looks like it's going to burn the bumper but it doesn't. What it does though is it fogs up the back bumper I guess from the heat humidity I dont know from what, but it looks normal. It is pretty funny though when I hit the gas my back bumper fogs up haha, and people can see it if there behind my friend was laughing at me in his little Type-S
