Exhaust question
 
A couple months ago I bought a Magna flow muffler. Whats next I should do with the rest of the exhaust system? Tried searching but couldnt find much.

Now you install it. (: Next would be a down pipe or a HFC

Well i guess that depends on where you live and what you plan on doin with your car...

I dunno if they have emissions testing in Utah or not, but that will determine wether or not you can run a test pipe. If you're plannin on goin BT at some point, you could re-plumb the whole exhaust with like ~2.75" stainless and get rid of the resonator, but that'll be loud as f*ck. If not, i'd just stick the magnaflow on there and leave everything else as-is. If you search on youtube there's a butt-load of sound clips on there, sounds pretty cool.

Ya I have it installed, if i do anything else I will just go with a k04. I was thinking something with a little more sound but with out the resonator it sounds shitty.

well get 2.5" piping all the way to the cat...yea check out youtube for some sound clips...
ummm i think it actually sounds better w/o the resonator...just my opinion though...
thats what i did if you want i can get you some sound clips of my car?

Ya that'd be cool if you could get me some, I found one on there that sounded good with no resonator but had a different turbo

Sounds Good!! HFC or test pipe?

brimhall99 01-08-2009 10:25 PM

So if I run 2.5 all the way to the cat how much should this cost for a shop to do? Already have the magnaflow muffler

nova_ss672001 01-08-2009 11:54 PM

labree HFC....
and 2.5 aluminized should run you round 100 bucks with labor and everything...
