    Opinions on MAC vs Flowmaster catback

    He only wants $200 for it, they go for about 310 new i think. If theres not much of a difference, I may just keep my flowmaster cat back and change mufflers. What muffler would give me a good sound? Im just kind of sick of the boring flowmaster sound. Sounds good, but too plain for me

    Opinions on MAC vs Flowmaster catback

    Currently have a flowmaster 2.5 inch system, but a friend has a brand new MAC 2.5 system with 3" tips that he wants to sell cheap. Do they sound any better than the flowmasters. Also, will the 3" tips look stupid? I always hated ricer looking tips. any opinions appreciated.
