Anyone run a MAC catback?

I know alot of us go with MAC headers but what about a MAC catback. How does it sound and any flow charts.

Thanks

I like the one i have on, very easy to install, had no problems. I have MAC headers aswell, and a Mustang guy said it was one of the nicest sounding Camaro's. Sorry i don't have a sound clip.

Thanks for the reply, not very many Camaro owners have these?
What did you pick them up for?

Thanks

Another Canuck here with a MAC system. I only wish I could get it in SS. I love the sound of it since I cut off the resonators. Beautiful old style muffled muscle car sound. Sweet music. Not real loud at idle, howls nicley under duress.

How did you go about cutting off the resonators? Are they in the tips?

Thanks

The resonators are built into the tips. Tips is hardly an adequate word to describe them. They look like big old sewer pipe with a slash cut exit. They are about 3.5 to 4 inch in diameter. I just hacked the whole thing off and re-installed the stock z tips. Very nice look and very nice sound.
