Need your opinion guys. Here's the situation, i got some magnaflow magnapacks for Xmas. I already have Bassani Mid length headers and Bassani O/R X pipe on the car. I wasnt too sure how loud it was going to be so i also got a pair of used Bassani Hi flow bolt on cats from a dude. Now here is my dilemma:

If i throw on the Magnapacks is it going to be unbearable loud since its all so unrestricted? And/Or will it sound like crap running it straight like that?

Or do you guys think it would sound better and be more tolerable loud if i bolt in the Bassani Hi flow Cats to the X pipe and run the Magnapacks that way?

My Bassani catted X and Magnapacks catback is plenty loud enough for me. I'd say my exhaust system has a 3-4 block head start before I actually show up.

I have Magnapacks on my 99 Cobra with a BBK o/r X and I love the way it sounds. My only complaint is sometimes it's not loud enough... Only sometimes
