Hey guys I just got my magnaflows put in on my car. It was a bit too loud but then I put the resonator back in and now it sounds PERFECT. There is no drone at all and when you open it up it sounds soooooo good, almost like a maserati. LOL If anyone is planning on doing this I highly recommend this instead of spending 3000 on some mufflers, I spent 320. The part # is 12198 if anyone wants to do this. Here are some pics and a video of the outcome!
P.S Are the tips kinda off?

I dont hear much at all to be truthful.

It sounds a lot deeper actually and my secondaries are still off. I gotta het some vids under load. It sounds stock just cruising but really opens up at wot.

nice work, sounds good how hard was it to put the factory tips on? tips look fine to me in the video

Thats because your car is insanely loud haha. You have the same setup as me but you have headers. The magnaflow is def not as loud as the meisterschaft but it sounds much better then stock thats for sure.

WPOZZZ

That sounds really nice! Btw, I miss that V1 sound when you start up. lol

Johncy2000

Thanks for the compliments guys. The tips were pretty difficult to put on. I'm kinda paranoid that my tips aren't even but it looks fine from a distance. And sounds better! Ps I love my v1!

youtube kills the sound, i have cutouts and it sounds stock.

valentine1 sounds good thou!

tips look fine, but are a little different than stock...you tips look even, but stocks are offset (if you know what i mean). Also, stock tips are closer together. Thats why it looks a lil different.

Johncy2000

Ya there wasn't much they could do because we had to use the stock piping from the mufflers and weld them to thegmaflows which were further apart. It look nice though

emoving

My point exactly!

Johncy2000

mufflers just broke-in and there is some drone at 1700-1800 rpm. WHo cares though the car feels faster but maybe its just the sound making me think so. I'm gonna dyno it later this week to get a baseline before modding it after christmas.

Strange, It sounds extremely quiet with the Resonator and Cat Delete...

Did you straight pipe the resonator and X Pipe the Cats? That's the only way to go..

Johncy2000

It's actually a bit on the loud side now. Do you guys think adding two mini glasspacks would help with the drone that magnaflows are notorious for?

I found this:

What if i put one on each side in place of the diagonal piping behind the muffler? Drone gone?

I also have my stock resonator on and its still loud. at low RPMs'

Does not sound like you have headers and X-Pipe inn the first video. A bit quieter than mine. I do like how it sounds with the Magnaflows. Nice.

Sounds pretty good for what you paid for sure! That with the 2nd cat delete gives it a way better sound than stock. The only thing I would say is that it does not sound like it has a deep throatiness to it? Good Job

Sounds nice and the tips look good!

hmmm... i think we need new video!

Johncy2000

Just installed a mid muffler on my system and all the DRONE is finally gone. It still has that deep rumble to it though. Vid will be up ASAP.

pearlpower

A very nice tone. Great job.

I know I know its sounds kinda like resonator and cat delete but it really doesn't sound stock. The whole point was to retain stock sound but have more muscular tone under load.

lets get a video of a flyby so we can really get a feel for it...
