    I like my stock exhaust. It's not a rusted pile of shit either. It was a lot quieter when I bought it I guess the PO drove it like a grandma and the people before him.

          Depends on the model?

              No clue. I guess they are all different?

              Magnaflows are normally run on muscle cars? No?

                Yeah, they have so many different models to choose from. From talking to Magnaflow rep, the bigger the can the less noise you'll get. I've yet to make another video, but I will do so soon.

                b35 + e30 = bavarian muscle car lol

                    it's just poorly made. doesn't fit right, and mine already has a weld broken on the can

                      How's it sound? After seeing a few clips of the Stromung I really want one (but not $600 want one).

                        I love my stock "i" system, quiet and leaves loud hondas in the dust.

                        I'm sure the 3.91 diff helps too.

                        If only I could get some traction8)

                            Is there any way to host audio files? I have a recording of the magnaflow on my M42 that I've been meaning to post at some point.

                              I've got one (14815 with otherwise stock piping). I love the tone, but it's way too loud for me. The drone drives me nuts. If I could have the same sound but quieter I'd be happy

                              1-10 I'd say 7 or 8

                                Loud car doesn't really bother me. My aunt had a very loud mustang and I loved it but, then again it was a v8
