Go to the following post link to get a great $350 buy on a Magnaflow 16633 Catback SS exhaust.

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ad.php?t=24489

 

I ordered the Magnaflow exhaust system from the group buy board. The price including shipping and handling was $370.00. This is a great deel.

 

I just ordered mine today. I'll try to get some before and after audio recordings to share with the board after I get it installed.

 

I thought the magnaflow was the loud crappy sounding one that everyone hated.

 

It appears to me that 'most' posts about the Magnaflow are positive, and a 'few' are negative. I believe your use of the word 'everyone' is misused. Many of us feel that the Crossfire exhaust needs more sound. The Magnaflow is a way to achieve that in a fairly easy way without cutting and hacking at the factory exhaust. Getting the price down to $350 makes the purchase a bit more palatable. That is a great buy relatively speaking. It is a duel stainless glass pack catback direct replacement. I intend to keep the factory stuff stored so that it could be restored to original it someone desires.

 

^^^What we needs is a sticky with the sound waves from all the ones available or links to videos so people can tell the difference.

 

I think that is the Flowmaster Delta

 

^^^Ah I think you're right.

 

Well, I got the new exhaust on the car today and I am very pleased with it. After reading some posts I was concerned that it would be too loud, but I don't feel it is overwhelming at all. The exhaust note is natural and does not sound artificial like the 4" coffee can exhausts we have all heard. I was thinking about putting the old tips back on, but I have to say the round ones have really grown on me. Installaton was pretty easy. Boy I didn't realize how tight 65 lb/ft really was. I was worried I was going to sheer the bolt for that clamp, but I didn't.

As for performance, it seems to rev a little freer on the expressway, but around town I couldn't notice any difference.

It's worth mentioning that wUndercarparts was very good with the whole transaction and I would buy from them again. It was a good deal and I received a good product; I'm very happy with how everything went.


Here is a clip of me making a short 30-60 mph run. Note the widows are up.

Ahhhh, that sounds sweeeeet.


Congrats and enjoy.

 

I'm still confused as to why Crossfire owners opt not to eliminate the Y pipe and create a true dual exhaust system.

My first observation on my '04 was that the factory system lends itself to fabricating two pipes from the secondary cats to a muffler with 2 intakes, and eliminating the Y pipe altogether.

It seems intuitive to me that 2 exhaust pipes can double the volume of gases expelled.

Am I wrong????

My guess would be that because most Crossfires especially NA ones do not make enough HP to benefit from a true dual exhaust. I would think that running a true dual setup on a mildy modified Crossfire, one would lose a lot of back pressure and bottom end on the car. This is just my thoughts. anyone else?

 

Don,
I looked into getting a setup like yours installed here in Sunny East Alabama and couldn't find:

A. anyone I would trust within 25 feet of my car and

B. anyone who could do mandrel bending for less than $30 per bend (!).

I went with the $350 Magnaflow for the ease and price.

Oh, and the GREAT sound.

 

i got mine up for 350 shipped in the for sale forums ... came off my brothers car with about 2000 miles on it. car was sold to get a 4 door for baby.

i have the same exhaust on mine ... sounds like it looks now.

 

So...I take it that you enjoy it????

 

every time i drop a few gears on the highway it puts a smile on my face .. so yes i do enjoy the sound. as my neighbor put it "huh, sounds good ... almost too good ..." making a ref. to high dollar toys he records for the super speeder videos.

 

I like having a sleeper. I'll stick with the stock exhaust. At best, I'd get 10 hp out of a good aftermarket exhaust, and it would cost big bucks. I prefer lots of go, not so much show. It really wakes 'em up when I blow their doors off, and they didn't even hear me do it.

 

anyone know if this deal is still on?

 

YES THE DEAL STILL GOES! BOUGHT MINE LAST WEEK. LOVE THE SOUND

 

Wow I just ordered one at work for $510 (no shipping or tax) I will send it back immediately if these guys come through.
