magnaflow turbo xl muffler question

The magnaflow turbo xl is a 3 chamber muffler to keep that baffle sound down. How does this muffler compare to a straight flow design, will I loose any power or spool up time? thanks

you'll probably lose a little bit of both. downpipe and feed pipe design is more important than all the way back at the muffler is. worry about those first.

My 3in ebay universal sounds like crap like something is rattling with the turbo now. im wanting something that sounds good. I was thinking to go with that magna flow 3" turbo xl and wanted some opinions on here. thanks

I would go with the Dynomax Superturbo. Not a fan of Magnaflow mufflers, I think they sound like ****. Their resonators are great though.

Stay away from Magnaflow muffler. Dynomax Superturbo muffler FTW

Apexi WS turbo muffler is good for me. very quiet while cursing and at WOT sounds like a beast.

Dynomax superturbo is awsome! very quiet and at wot sounds nice. How ever I am not sure if it would restrict for turbo setup. maybe the 3" in/out let superturbo would be ideal..

My straight through Magnaflow is the same way... quiet while cruising and sounds good when going crazy and that's with a straight exhaust from the turbo back. It does drone at low rpm, but lower than what I cruise at.

Summit, or i think discount autoparts can order them for you as well. I kno they always have the 2.5" ones in stock but not the 3"
