Does it really sound diffrent..........

I currently have a Borla cat back system but the
sound could be better. I just might switch to
Magnaflow if my buddy Craig comes thru as promised.
The Stillen system is tops on quality and some of you
dig the sound.

You should get Stillen for the win.

Stillen looks good, but not big muffler ricey, and sounds sexy and mean. No regrets getting it and get compliments from everyone that gets in my car.

Stock with cats and a Y-pipe -

OR get it a custom system made for less - custom tuned to your liking!

Where are you located?

Has anyone lost torque by adding the exhaust? Thanks.

I personally have not noticed any low end torque lost. However, that is based simply from sitting on my a$$. In 1st gear at idle, the car still jumps, as expected.

I have had the opportunity to listen to quite a few aftermarket exhaust in person. They all sounded great. I ultimately chose the HKS Hi-Power, because it yielded the sound/tone and look, which I was looking for.

The HKS Hi-Power exhaust comes complete for a quick and simple bolt-on install. It comes with a H-pipe, new gaskets and new SS bolts. I decided to reuse the stock gaskets at the cats, because they were made better and reused the stock nuts for the existing cat studs for the same reason.

I have the magnaflow on as of right now. I can't stand the sound it's too loud, I guess it's all personal preference though. Has anyone heard anything about the Blitz? I already have custom piping I was just wondering if switching the rear section/y-pipe would deepen the tone.

Do you have the whole Magnaflow G system? If so, what part of the sound do you not like? Does it drone? Just too loud to begin with? Does it sound like a trumpet? If it's not the whole Magnaflow system, what is your actual layout?
