custom catback vs regular catback

An exhaust shop sells 3 in catbacks with you choice of muffler for $250 installed, would they be any sound/performance differences from thier custom catback with a magnaflow muffler than a magnaflow catback from them?

Ask them to make sure, but I doubt the system they bend for you will be made of stainless. Also, it probably isn't going to have the nice mandrel bends.

Given the choice, I'd go all stainless with mandrel bends from Magnaflow and the $250 price. www.ebaymotors.com just do a search on Magnaflow..

Magnaflow only lets their dealers use stainless for their catbacks. VERY strict about that. Just an FYI
