I just ordered mine as a Christmas present to my Mustang. (Why can't cars get presents????) Should get installed first part of next week.

I really liked the sound of the Magnaflow, which I thought was deeper/throatier than the stock. Has anyone Dyno'ed their car after installing these? Magnaflow says 19HP & 17 ft lbs pickup. Just wondering if anyone got that.





Now if Santa will bring me my wheels!

Congradulations-

You can expect gains of 10-12 rwhp with the catback -

The 19rwhp and 17rwtq are with the catback and our very soon to be released Magnaflow catted X pipe-


Just wait until you hear it in person- sound clips dont do this system justice-

Oh - the dyno results on the web were with the catted X pipe? Didn't know that. (Guess that's what the Tru-X part was). When is the X coming out and with my setup, is it an option to put on later? Forgive me for my stupidity, but I don't work on cars. I just drive em fast.

Thx!

yep the X pipe can be added at a later date- it will bolt right up to your Magnaflow catback-

Thanks for your support!

In the end, I just ordered it through SpeedSouth. I was a little leery of ordering online and haulin it down there to have it installed. This way, I've got the local shop to go to if something ain't right on it. Cost more, but a little peice of mind.

I can't wait to get this installed an hear it for the first time on my car. My laptop speakers suck and I can't really get a good idea of how the Magnaflow sounds.

I am waiting on them to get the x Pipe out so I can add that to the car. That'll be the real HP gain on the system. Just have to be patient, I guess!

GNN60GT500 - have any idea when you guys will finish the X pipe for the GT??
