flowmaster or magnaflow

iv noticed alot of people with 430s have the magnflow and some get the esinemm how come people dont get the flowmasters is it cause it sound to muscle car or should i just get the magnaflow muffler but i like the sound of flowmaster 40 series but i think it will sound stupid on a 430

0 performance value. more sound and extra option for whatever tips you want.

if you want some growl in your exhaust.

youtube has some good vids. just look up mercedes 320 magnaflow. lol we all use the same engine anyways. hahaha.

also. it is really only for aesthetics. with a magnaflow, you can go anywhere from dual tip (2 on 1 side), dual (1 on each side), quad (2 tips on both sides).

options are kind of endless. and depends on how much sound you want out of your 320. there are some that have straight pipes, some that remove resonators and secondary cats. like i said endless options. and im sure if you do a search for exhaust you can get the idea of what you might want to do from other members.
