HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY...

I Just had the Magnaflow system put on the car by Morse Exhaust Systems in Burbank, CA, sans tips for the time being. We decided that replacing the current system directly through to the Magnaflow 1-2 muffler would be way too loud (REDCROSS WILL AGREE), so we installed a "cherry bomb" baffle along the exhaust pipe, in between the flange and the muffler... It took them about 45 minutes to fabricate and install and does not have the 90 degree angle off resonator that Borla has designed.

It now has an in-line non-restrictive baffle and the exhaust note is perfect...

I would guess 15 decibles higher with a very low rumble on initial acceleration and then tones down at speed to nearly the original OEM decibles.

They are now in the process of building a custom tip which will bascically look like the two OEM tips combined side-by-side into one wide 2-1 exhaust tip to fill the entire bodywork gap and follow the shape of the cut-in on the rear fascia...

Total cost was $400.00 + $20.00 tip to their welder for doing such a great job...

Don't ask me to dyno it because I never got baseline numbers, but the owner of the shop said he would guess it will only increase HP by maybe 4-5 hp... And I think this guy would know, since he had two Lola, Formula Ford racers in the shop and a wall full of trophies...
