Re: Magnaflow exhaust? Yes or no?
Definitely recommended. Best bang for the buck. Fairly mellow/quite til you get on it then sounds off nicely. Will outlast any standard exhaust for a similar price.

Re: Magnaflow exhaust? Yes or no?
Quick & easy. Relatively inexpensive. A good DIY'er project. Did mine in just under an hour working on ramps with just 15" of clearance under the car.







Sound good too! Little noisier on the highway than I'd like but some insulation in the rear will fix that.

Yep. That was the car in the background, 3 spaces away, going off. Once I heard it beep, I just HAD to set it off.

If you LOOK CLOSE, you can see his lights flashing BARELY.

Magnaflow is the way to go. When you say exhaust it means Magnaflow. I've been using them in all vehicles that I use.
