Question Solo Cat Back MACH X or Magnaflow Competition exhaust for 2010 LS3 MT? Opinions Pleas

My new 2010 Orange Inferno Camaro justly named "Lucretia" is in my garage finally! I want to upgrade my exhaust system and I like the Magnaflow Competiton cat back and the SOLO MACH X cat back. SOLO is less expensive which is good and SOLO claims to NOT have drone but my local muffler shop really likes the Magnaflow brand.

Which is the better for sound on a V8 manual tranny? I like (Loud and throaty) and which has less drone?

Members please chime in

Thanks Guys!

both are great products, i have experience with both. i think best bang for the buck is SOLO honestly. the magnaflow might be a little louder i believe but the Mach has an awesome tone and ZERO drone. its def. throaty too. are you planning on headers in the future?

headers with magnaflow comp. will be quite loud and unrefined. don't get me wrong, solo will be loud too but i think it sounds better

I would agree with that! I have the Solo Mach-X and I love it! Great sound and won't break the bank!

Got a great price on the Magnaflow 16580 cat-back system from JDP Motorsports. Give Jordan or Aimee a call. The car has a nice low rumble at idle and sounds GREAT when you jump on it.
