I just had my mufflers deleted yesterday and I'm loving it.
The drone is minimal and give a great loud low-end growl when punching it and its quiet when I don't get on the accelerator.

I have the magnaflow and I love it. It is very quiet, no drone. I've got downpipes ordered so the combination of the two should be perfect level of sound for me.

Magnaflow doesn't provide any power claims or dynos on their site.

There are definite gains, but exhaust is more about an overall better flowing engine and sound.

I'm agree, but like JUN BL exhaust GT type, 30hp gain on dyno. I don't know why each Brand don't do dyno test on their product.

I can't speak to why magnaflow decided to not dyno the exhaust, but they are all going to have very similar gains. Different cars on different dynos are going to give different results. The only way to compare gains from exhaust is to dyno the same car on the same dyno back to back with only swapping the catback. In short, buy whatever sounds best to you.

The only sound make me smile, it's NGM Zeta Axleback Exhaust.

ARK and Jun Bl sounds ok, Magnaflow sound just a bit louder than stock, Borla is not the type of sound I want...

I'm beginning to wonder about the sound from combining the SSR downpipes and the Magnaflow cat/axle-back!

Has anyone else had difficulty getting the Tubi Style system? I placed an order well over a month ago and it has yet to ship from Italy. I understand summer "holidays" in Europe, but I was originally told on Aug31st that it was being produced the following week. As we get close to Oct 1st with no unit it sight, I am considering canceling my order. Anyone have any thoughts/insights? Thanks.

Do you have videos or sound tests of the sound inside and out? That would be really interesting to see.

Here's a sound clip for those who are curious about how our exhaust sounds with our new down pipes, they will be available in about 2 months.

I agree with you [MENTION=328]Kazz[/MENTION], I haven't pulled the trigger yet on the Magnaflow exhaust but it combined with the Ultimate Performance HFC Downpipe + Mid Pipe Combo Kit would sound perfect. When I do have it done I will have it dynode before and after to see what gains you get you get with the cat-back magnaflow exhaust.
