Default new magnaflow cat back installed

absolutely love the sound it makes.....also learned the best way to go is find a muffler shop that does/bends their own pipes, pick the muffler you want, the diameter of piping you want, tips, and save hundreds of dollars vs. ordering a ready made catback system. The magnaflow catback I saw on just about every website is going for 780'ish, and letting the muffler shop build the catback around a magnaflow muffler w/ same specs as the ready made catback set me back only 550 out the door installed (winning). Couldn't be happier about that situation!

The Magnaflow catback is full stainless, mandrel bends, tig welds, and direct bolt up. It's not really the same thing as the aluminized, crush bend, mig welded product an exhaust shop would assemble.

For $260 you could of purchased the Magnaflow from Boesch Built with the pipes welded and bent to stock inlet and dual stock outlets specs, plus it utilizes the stainless steel piping. Three clamps, 45 minutes of your time, job done.

No worries, we've all been down that road before, one time or another. Congrats on the exhaust system, regardless.
