Question Magna Flow Cat Back

Is anyone using or know anyone using a Magna Flow cat Back system? They're stainless and cost way less than Corsa or Borla, but I've only seen people mention Hooker, Borla or Corsa on this site. Anybody have anything on these? Thanks. (I'm new to posting on this site, but I've learned sooo much from everyone, thanks for all the knowledge.

I put the Magnaflow cat back on my car in January. I'm very pleased with it, though it's hard to tell if the performance has been helped (209500 miles). It sounds really good in my opinion. Sounds fairly normal until you get on it. Definitely worth it to me.

I've heard nothing but good things about the Magnaflow catback. Do a search for Magnaflow in this forum and you should come across a few videos.

They are nice catbacks. They sound good and are stainless steel. The only downfall IMO is the tips. I'm not a fan of the slash cut tips on cars. My buddy had a Magnaflow on his 99 WS6. It sounded fairly quite at idle, but you could still hear the difference from stock. When he got on it though it really came to life. I'd say go for it. Not sure what kind of gains you'll see with it though.

I LOVE my Magnaflow. I wish it were a bit louder, but that'll come when I put on headers and a hi-flow cat. When ya get on the gas it makes a bit of noise It is good quality and WAY cheaper than anything in its class. The tips and muffler are polished stainless, they are sweet! Go for it, you won't be sorry.
