Great to hear another satisfied Magnaflow user! Seemed like the sound got better as the system got older. Have had it on for a year and a half and it sounds fantastic! Great choice!

Glad you joined the satisfied customers club...Like it was said, give it a chance to "break in" a bit...The sound will get smoother and deeper

So when's the X-pipe coming? If you like the sound now, just wait until you get an X-pipe...

Glad to hear you like it as well. I've had mine on for about 6k miles and it sounds wicked. I added a Borla O/R H-Pipe about a month ago, and it really sounds mmean now.

Congrats on your solid purchase of magnaflow. I have had mine on for around 5k and it is always a pleasure to start it up. Now all i need is a prochamber and add just a hint of nasty to the sound.

I agree they sound better the longer you have them. I have an o/r X-pipe and love the sound. Also, I have had no trouble with the tips coming lose and have had it for 10 months.

I've got the Magnaflow Magnapacks and I love them. I can't seem to find a catted "H" pipe for my car so I guess I'm going to have to settle for a catted "X" pipe. I'm sure I'll still be happy.

I've never even heard of Borla making an O/R H-pipe, but would love to hear some sound clips of it.

Borla made one for a very short time but stopped for some reason. i think it was because it wasn't making any extra hp.

Let me clarify: It is a Borla mid-pipe. It looks more like a MAC prochamber.(Big box in place of the connecting tube) I picked it up from a friend who bought it along with the Saleen Borla exhaust. He bought an 2005 Saleen, so I got it still in the box for cheap! Not sure where he bought it.

Yes. Get it and don't look back. It's a great X-pipe IMHO. Perfect fit and great performance (see sig for exhaust combo). I'd go with the same midpipe and catback if I had to do it all over again.
