Magnaflow Cat Back

Hi guys, I would just like some opinions on the magnaflow system. I noticed not many people have it, therefore I cant find much info on it.

I don't know much about it either, but based on how much they cost, I would go with another brand. They seem to be double the price of most other exhausts.
my 2 cents...

life time warranty, dyno proven and sounds great... Its very silent when you want it to be and very loud when you want it to be loud. Also its very light weight, all 4 piece prolly close to 15-20 lbs. But all in all, the extra you are paying for is warranty. My welding on the hanger fatigued and i was able to bring it to a magnaflow dealer by recommendation by Miles(awesome person) from magnaflow, to process an RMA. There are magnaflow dealers pretty much everywhere there is a muffler shop, took it to a local tuning shop Group 5 in san diego, they were able to get me a brand new exhaust system pretty much happy with the whole experience. Heres what the exhaust sounded like...

Highly doubt it weights 15-20 lbs. Titanium exhausts way that much and this is Stainless Steel. My guess would be 35-40 lbs since the Agency Power one is 50 lbs with the midpipe.

I was probably exaggerating when i said 15-25 lbs, but its pretty light i could hold all 4 pieces in 1 arm. I looked up shipping weight it was 37lbs. -packaging around 30 pounds, the mufflers themselves aren't that big, they are abit narrower than most.

Sounds about right I just don't want to see someone getting excited about the weight you posted. It looks like a really nice exhaust.

Put one on the wife's car and she loves it. I got a decent deal price-wise off eBay, otherwise I wouldn't have considered it.
