I'm looking to upgrade the exhaust on my '07. I had the o/r MAC Prochamber w/the MAC cat-back on my '01 GT and absolutely loved the way it sounded - hence no need to convince me there. However, on my '07 I want fit/finish/quality to be top notch as well.
My question here is more about the fit, finish, & quality of everything from their headers, to mid-pipes, to axel back. On my '01, the fit was never great (though doing it in my backyard and not on a lift I'm sure added to the issues), but the pipes never came out as straight as they should be and the tips were definitely not lined up correctly. DIY related issues? I'm sure some percentage of it was related to that, but I know they had issues back then too.
Add in the fact that the tips (chrome at the time) would be covered in rust spots in just a few short months and it made for a less than desirable experience (thought nothing a brillo pad couldn't fix!).
So I ask, for the '05+ GT's, have they improved their quality at all? I do enjoy the sound of my exhaust over a stock exhaust, but nothing will compare to having a completely after market exhaust installed. Performance in this case comes secondary.
Anyone have any experience with them? Any/all feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
Side note: ufnavy06's post is certainly helpful and informative - it partly inspired this post - but I'm also looking for those that have had the system on for longer as well. Thanks all!
