Its the one Magnaflow's site says works for my 5th gen.



Anyone got some pictures with it on their cars?

I think the tip is ugly. I think it can ruin the apperance. Most magnaflows sound good but I beileve its either the street or race series that sounds like crap.

I had just a magnaflow muffler with 2.25" custom piping with a resonator at one time. I liked the deep tone, but it was just too loud at freeway speeds. I replaced it within a year. I'm not sure how the catback systems compare exactly, but my setup looked pretty much just like that one pictured even though it was custom.

Tip does look wierd, so thats why I am looking for some pictures. I would much rather get the whole thing rather than piece it together.

Mine is kinda noisy for me too on the freeway, and it even has a resonator on it h:

I love my MagnaFlow. I wish I would have followed my first mind and gotten it when I first got my exhaust instead of getting a Hayame Type 7 cantaloupe cannon. Live and learn huh?

I have custom piping mated to a MagnaFlow race series muffler


Sounds perfect for my taste. It's barely noticeable at idle, sporty sounding under acceleration, only roars at WOT. I have no problems at all at freeway speeds as far as sound, when cruising, it's not even noticeable.

some of their exhausts are obnoxiously loud, but I forget which line (go to their site), I really love it though, it's just a little louder than stock, and absolutely beautiful looking. Check out their site, it's pretty obvious on there as I remember, I'll try to remember and post up the exact name in a bit - GREAT quality though.
