magnaflow is just a muffler.. you can go to a exhaust shop and they can custom pipe it in for almost nothing. the most u pay is for the muffler..

im in selden. levittown isnt that far from me.


i might straight pipe my car after the cat. so i can pass inspection, or just get a decent magnaflow muffler

Why? The Borla is nicely made, well-priced, has a good warranty, a nice tone, and one of the nicest looking tips. They started out making exhausts for high-end Euro cars and they are made in America, unlike a lot of chinese-made imported parts with fancy (and often well-known and highly-regarded) brand names... such as Magnaflow to name one.

You can check out Remus. They make one for every thing. Supersprint does two.

Did you pipe in a resonator? The right one will help reduce the farty, raspy sound.
