Magnaflow Cat-Back Review

I just installed my Magnaflow cat-back which I was able to pick up for $517 brand new (incl. shipping and taxes).

This is a GREAT exhaust. It's got a perfect daily driver subtleness to it. It's obviously louder and has the typical cat-back sound to it but it's not TOO loud in regular driving.

The great thing is, when you open it up, it comes alive and sounds amazing.

So to anyone looking for somthing that probably won't get you stopped by the cops (depending on how you're driving ), look into the Magnaflow.

No, it should fit fine with the stock cat. I have the UR ceramic cat but it was the same size as my stock (or very close to).

Also, Hotkupa, almost everyone knows things are slightly more expensive in Canada due to duty, taxes, etc...$517 is the lowest price I've ever seen for any cat-back here. Going rate is usually $600+ (Ultimate Racing is $900+ with taxes).

I installed axelback glasspacks... for $320 and the sound is priceless. kept the piping at 2.5" tips are 4.5"


Magnaflow is one of the greatest sounds produced. I have them on my BMW as well.
