it has a deep tone to it. but they all do. i have had the 2010 cattman mufflers , and ive driven with people who have had the ebay exhaust , nismo and the magnaflows. if your the type that doesnt like cabin noise then dont get any. you can have the magnaflow tips welded on for the look as well

I think i am going to get them , but i see someone that got them but stay with stock resonators how do you do that ? and do that means is going to be all tips ? then why not just get tips right ? confuse.

mufflers are just mufflers... you chop off the current mufflers and you weld in the magnaflows.. you dont touch any other piping. The stock resonator is up front right after the cat and that wont be touched.

the magnaflows will give a nice tone... better than stock.. sounds really good and not loud at all. I have them.. get em

MaxPrime

That's what I want it to hear thank you I will get them do you know a place to get them for cheap or what ? And how much more louder than stock? How much it cost you to be install.

twentyeggs

replacing the mufflers will not do very much, will do nothing for you in terms of performace. if you want some performance you need to do catback

you need to chop off that resonator, get a high flow resonator (or none at all), get 2.75" piping, all the way back to your magnaflows. just getting the muffler swapped out is a waste of time IMO

MaxPrime

What I need to add a resonator for ? What will that do? All I want is a brand new exhaust with some good low sound, just want the look I leave in newyork man don't need any more speed or hp just looks , so what I am going to do is good right just get the magnaflows and keep everything else stock just to make it look nice what you think.

twentyeggs

if your going for looks only then your setup is good.

if you want some sound out of it, i would get rid of the res, its very quiet with the resonator and mufflers. you wont hear the sound unless your right in back of the car

MaxPrime

Man that sounds good to me lol all I want is the looks of it and the lil but of sounds a makes thanks I will be adding pics when I get the on my car cant wait , do you know what's and average price for installation?

it should cost must to cut and weld those on...find a couple shops and get a price

I3LAZEN

If your going for just looks.. the shop will simply chop off your current mufflers and weld in the magnaflows. It WILL give a slightly diff tone than the stock. You'll like it.

I got em off ebay from some shop on there... Paid I think $130 for each one.

When I did it a long time ago, shop charged me $60 to put both of them on.

MaxPrime

Nice i like that word for what i am trying to do "SLIGHTLY" yeah i think i will love it man , because i dont want it to loud and add this babys will give it a 5% tone change is all i want nothing to crazy thanks i will post pics when i make it happen thanks.

Sounds like your like me and like the quiet but still a nice tone... go for it bro.. you wont regret it.

When i want to make noise.. i open my cutout lol .. then close it to go back to silence.

Why go through all that just for 2.75 pipe when factory is 2.5. If anyone is going to change the size of their pipe, it should be to 3" IMO.

1hawaii50

iTrader: (14)

Isn't factory piping 2.25"?

MaxPrime

The reason i am adding new exhaust cause i want something new chrome , stock it look plain , so i didnt want to take the ones there of paint them and all that BS when i can just go by it brand new and it will look much better i seen them on some of the members here and i love the look at it.

wrestler760189

hey wat i did too my maxima was i took off the resonator and the cadilac converter and add two straight pipes with the stock mufflers and it makes it sound like if i had a honda civic but i add those magnaflows and it was a better sound and it will pick up alot more too.

Vibrant 1148s... way better than Magnaflow IMO...

Flat black... they will be way easier to clean, and you get a sleeper look too... loved mine when I had them.

Looks pretty good IMO

SpayceMan

I've been debating getting Magnaflow mufflers as well. Can people start posting pictures of their different Magnaflow tips?

MaxPrime

Yeah post them cant get enough of seeing the 14816 on a car post some lol , i will be posting some my self just oder them last night and i didnt get a tracking number yet so that means i wil be waiting till next week sometime mad but at lease i oder them already feels good.

14816
Double Wall, Straight Cut
2.25" Inlet, 3.5" Diam. Tips
7" Tip Length
5" x 8" Oval Body

14807
Double Wall, Straight Cut
2.25" Inlet, 4" Diam. Tips

Did this mod a few years ago with the 14816. Went throught the whole process of deleting, replacing, and reinstalling the resonator. I value my peace and quiet in the car, so did my passengers. This is what it sound like minus the resonator. It sounded good but the interior noise was too loud. Replaced the stock resonator with a Magnaflow #10436. To me it was still too loud, reinstalled the cruise missile to get the silence back.

Gollum, where the hell you been man, hope all is well.


OP, mufflers look great

SpayceMan

Thanks for the details, Dafedexman. I think I've decided on the 14805's because of their strong resemblance to the stock mufflers. Now that that's done, can anyone recommend a good shop in the Princeton, NJ area with a good reputation/price rate??

MaxPrime

NP hope you get it put in soon, come back add some pictures for us to see.

mrjasonlyrics

I just bought the 14816,does anyone have vidoes of what it sounds like with a catback?I really hope I get some hp outta them to contribute to a better track time.

MaxPrime

You going to love it trust just put them on.

scrui

Be honest, how do they sound? Are they loud? when you are crusing, do you still hear inside the cabin. I'm also thinking of getting them, but I'm afraid the noise will be to much. Don't get me wrong I like the loud sound when I give it gas.

MaxPrime

I dont have nothing else but the mufflers, i can hear it in cabin but it i wil rate it from 0 to 100 i will say that the noise is 30 to 40 , the faster you go the lower it sounds for me the slower i go the louder it sounds.

Trust me when i say it sounds really good you going to love the sound if they are install right , i love mines b/c i really dont like loud noise in the cabin , i didnt change the res or nothing just mufflers.

If you change res or do anything else that i didnt do i cant tell you what it will sound like.

scrui

Thanks.
Where did you get yours?

MaxPrime

I got mines from a member that was selling it brand new couple of months back , he crash his car so he got a 2010 and he sold the flows to me and the tails but like i said bro id you change y pips and other things i dont know how it will sound for you i dont have nothing on my car but the flows everything else is stock and i love it.

You should try it that way first and if you wnant it deeper then you take something else out like y pipes or res how ever you want to do it , i wont never take out res cause it have a nice tone already if you take that beast out the car will sound really loud , you can also get a CAI for some sexy sound is my sext mod a Takeda CAI and short Ram

scrui

nah, I just want the mufflers too. not interested in changing everything. If it aint broken why fix it. When the rest of the exaust system needs to be changed then I'll consider changing those parts for something more stylish.

MaxPrime

Cool same here f you going to have it just like me then you going to love it trust me bro you will hear the light tone and say man Prime was right
