Default magnaflow high flow

I know that the direct fit bolts right in to the manifold couplers, but how are Yall getting it attached to the rest of the system after the cat? Will a clamp work? I don't have a welder.

Clamp will do fine. It's 2.5" in diameter.
You might have to find some adapters if it does not fit right in into your exhaust.
I'm actually setting this up this week.
I got the Magnaflow Cat + dual 3" exhaust from Summit.

that muffler from the 3" dual kit from summit will fall right apart. i have the same one, and the muffler fell apart in less than a year. have since replaced it with a flowmaster 10 series.

to the OP. you may need some adapters, but its not likely. your catback is measured in ID, cat is measured in OD. should slip right on with a bit of persuasion.

Well alrighty then. Do they really make a diff if the stock cat is in good shape? Any loss of low end torque?

Clamp it on then take it to a muffler shop...they'll charge you about $20

If you gut your stock one or remove it all together you'll lose bottom end. I had a magnaflow on my 98,no loss of bottom end.
