sorry for all the questions lately , but i just finished my stereo and am really getting into performance . my local stereo installer has a magnaflow exhaust on his grandprix and it sounds really nice . i realize that his car is a 6 cylinder and mine is a 4 which would most likely sound a little different on my car . but i am just wondering how they rank in terms of performance and quality . thanks .

I had a magnaflow Muffler and 2 1/2" pipe on my Probe... I loved it ...

It looked and sounded Purty

what's the range in cost on them? and where's a good place to order them from? i'm still deciding on whether or not to get a flowmaster or what? i've also seen the magnaflow around, but not sure of the price difference between that and the flowmaster??

Magnaflows aren't that expensive, all Mineikie's (sp) have them, personally I would buy the muffler and have them bend pipe, Magnaflow has some sweet mufflers, but we've had that argument before.

I have a magnaflow on my highlander now with 2.5" piping... love it- sounds nice, and nice and shiny

magnaflow systems are OK!
look nicer than the flowmaster units imo.

how do they compare to brands like greddy and 5zigen ? thanks .

slowEJ6 · 06-05-2002, 12:23 PM

what do you mean how do they compare? its mandrel bent piping and a nice shiny muffler (depending which one you buy)....so its pretty much the same thing performance wise.
oh and btw, 5Zigen Fireball exhaust was made by an idiot - dont base things against that in the area of performance.

I have a magnaflow on my 97 civic and I love it. It as about $325.00 installed I had the shop bend the pipe for me. it looks and sounds great.
