I got rid of my single 4" Borla XR-1 and replaced it with a single 3" Magnaflow Magnapack.The sound is VERY close to the Borla, a little tamer at idle and doesnt resonate as much.The overall sound is smoother but still freakin loud.I also added a cutout and flange at the rear of the muffler in case i needed more loudness

I just got some of the ones with a valve. It'll be a while before the car runs for a report. My intent was to have a quiet idle, and little to no restriction on the top end.

If this is a single exhaust setup, why didn't you have the exhaust exit out the passenger rear? Is it 3" diameter throughout?

Ah, okay. Have you drove over some hills to see if the rear end drops & hits the exhaust?! It looks pretty close!

As low as the car is, nothig scrapes expect for the turbo crossover in front. I have been driving the car a lot more recenlty and it does fine over bumps or rough roads.

Still have no complaints. As far as drivability, its excellent. I havent messed with the fuel parameters in a while, but i just got a new in car computer to monitor everything so plan to get back to tuning under boost.
