Pics of the new Magnaflow cat-back on her! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just got this done this morning by a buddy of mine that runs a performance shop. This is only my second day being able to drive the car and I had the 3" Magnaflow cat-back competition series stainless steel system installed. He took photos before and after. The first 3 photos are before. The last ones are after. The stock exhaust is not a thing of beauty. The new system sounds great, deeper tone, no cracklin and less back pressure, plus adds some hp. Can't tell from the outside that much anything was done unless you get up close to the tips that are 4". I took some more photos today of the mufflers and tips. (got a little road grime on the mufflers-I'll be cleaning those again next time I detail!) I'm trying so hard not to get on the pedal too much!

Nice pics,but what about the vid?

ADM PERFORMANCE · 10-09-2009, 06:29 PM

Best exhaust ever for the camaro....MY OPINION!

Melson · 10-09-2009, 07:29 PM

I would agree with Andy............

Bell040 · 10-09-2009, 07:31 PM

vid?

you know u can just show exhaust pics without a vid right

topgun1 · 10-09-2009, 07:48 PM

Yeah sorry no vid, I just gave the guy my camera and asked him to take a few shots while I was away. Didn't want some grainy cell phone vid where you can't hear it anything like it sounds. But anyway, awesome exhaust-i've had Magnaflow's on 2 vehicles before and wouldn't do anything else- and it's already sounding even better than it did this morning since it's been warmed up and some metal burned off. It's getting even deeper in sound and has a great hum at highway speeds.

thunderwagen · 10-09-2009, 09:17 PM

This is the exhaust that I am really looking at getting.

Melson · 10-09-2009, 09:56 PM

you will not be disappointed............I have it on mine with AR Headers, and a ADM intake

thunderwagen · 10-09-2009, 10:17 PM

Hey Melson you are in my neck of the woods. Would you mind meeting up so I can check out your car to see how it sounds in person and how loud the noise is inside the car?

franknbeans · 10-09-2009, 10:20 PM

wish I would have waited. . . I like the 3" over the 2.5 street series I got.

Andy, have you ever done a comparison between Magnaflow's x-pipe and the others available? I remember you saying in another thread that other designs had a better merge.

MarylandSpeed · 10-10-2009, 01:06 AM

Looks good! The stock mufflers look like damn gas tanks.
