Who makes the Magnaflow? Dynomax? I wouldn't waste the money if you're looking for performance, but if you don't like the sound it might be worth it.

flowmaster

Flowmaster 80 is an awsome upgrade. I felt noticible gians in acceleration and et's. At first is sounds quiet, but once they break in they sound really good. they get pretty loud.

Hey james, I like that pic, hehe.
I inspected a bunch of mufflers like that at an exhaust shop before I settled on my magnaflow. Im very happy I did so far, I like not sounding like most of the other cars around here. It sounds pretty good with the 3 inch cat back and high flow cat. Now I just have to do something about those stock manifolds and y pipe....

Oh, I forgot to mention, magnaflow is actually made by carsound.
