Excellent choice. Macs are one of the best sounding mufflers imo. It could go either way on the install. My buddy's car has a mac x-pipe and mac cat back and it all fit together great. My car has a Mac x-pipe, and I had no fitment problems either. A lot of people say they do though. Sometimes I think it's the tool holding the tools.

I should forward this off to the techs at SLP cause they had a hell of a time getting the MAC system to fit on my car without hitting anything....as did I.

no they arnt like stingers, they look like oem mufflers, tons of packing with like the tubing going at a 45 degree angle straight through. I want XR1s eventually Im not sure, Im probably gonna get hooked on chambered mufflers after these macs, Im sitting here looking out the window waiting for UPS to come lol.

5.0s SHOULD sound raspy and it just doesnt sound right when they have really deep tones like magnaflow/borla etc..
Click to expand...

I cant speak for borla, but you've apparently never heard magnaflows before. Magnaflows are some of the raspiest sounding muffles I have ever heard.

I had macs, I wanted raspier, and now decided my new mufflers are LESS raspy then the old ones...

I guess Im going big now! Get some vids, I actually think the Macs are very underrated (to me anyways)!

lol, ok I know what you mean by them cocking out were'd, mine do that exact same thing, only way I can see to fix it is to cut it right after the last ball&socket joint and weld it back on at a different angle. Sounds awesome! Now I know what mine sounds like. never heard it from behind.
