Maybe it's just me, but I think an exhaust system (a good one at least-Not Stock) should last the life of the car. I know Borla's and Corsa's for example have a warranty on them.

Mine has been on the car for at least 5 years. I've changed mufflers a few times for sound preference. I'll keep it on until it's rusted out. But I don't think that will happen too soon since it's stainless steel.

Yeah, I like how magnaflow is stainless, just isn't loud enough. Great sound out of it, just want loud haha. I think I will keep this exhaust on for about 3 years then go with loudmouth. Just heard soundclips and WOW.

Purchased the TA new back in January of '97, bought the Flowmaster cat-back about 3 days later and it's been on there ever since.

i kept the borla about 8 months then true duals 1 month, then a stock catback (with cutouts) for 2 weeks, then a flowmaster muffler for 1 week, and yesterday i cut the flowmaster off for a straight pipe with a bullet in the i pipe who knows whats next.

you could say i change exhaust often....i just cant seem to find the sound i like....
