midpipe mod? a nice sounding option?
So I have been scouring local fs sites for a midpipe but aren't having much luck. I looked on youtube and found videos of sedans with magnaflow resonators in place of factory ones. I really like the sound but can't find a part number for the magnaflow. I have a 03 sedan...does anyone know which magnaflow resonator works? Thanks in advance everyone!!

Try the Magnaflow 10436.
I just installed one a few weeks ago on my 2004.5 and the car sounds the way it should have sounded from the factory. It's not a bolt on, but any reputable muffler shop can make it look right.
Wife friendly, no rattles, nice tone, no rasp and little to no drone.
Save about 30lbs as well.
This one should be up there with the Z-Tube and 5/16 Plenum spacer as must have mods for any 1st gen sedan.

Yes, just 2.5".
I worried about this at first as well since there are some conflicting posts on the boards regarding this subject, especially in the area where the Y-Pipe transitions into the midpipe. Essentially what the exhaust shop will do is cut out the resonator portion of the stock midpipe, and weld in the new Magnaflow muffler.
Once installed, it looks stock because it tucks up in there under the heat shield nicely, just like the coupe midpipe (I found these much more difficult to find used).
Additionally, I have found a few guys that run this Magnaflow muffler on the G with some success:
That one may exist as a second phase, but for now I am happy with the way the car sounds and performs.
