I have an o/r pipe and drive 50miles each way to work. it is not bad. if I had gears I would proably not even notice it. the only time I notice anything at all is cruising right at 2k. if I were reving more I would not even notice it. If you don't have to have the cats do youslef a favor and save some $$$ and just get an o/r pipe. vrs makes the cheapest stainless x-pipe I have found at $250 to your door.

Hey all, I've got the magnaflow catback already installed and want to put on the magnaflow catted x pipe as well, however, i drive my car for work 50+ miles daily. Do you think it would be too loud for a daily work driven car?

I wished you lived closer to me. I live in Tampa and I have Magnaflow Catted X and Magnapacks on my '02 GT Vert. The sound is just below Obnoxious to my wife so that suits me just fine.

Scotty's got some links in his signature. Do a search for posts by 'Spreadman'. That's what sold me on my setup.

Thanks, Spreadman!

Ok, im convinced to buy it... Partshopper is having a good deal on them, however, they are much more expensive than i remember... I remember when i wanted to get one 6 months ago it was only 380 at full line exhaust and partshopper and now full line wants 625 for one and parthshopper is around 400 something with discounts and free shipping. Thats crazy.. I cant seem to find one on ebay.... anywhere else i can buy one for around 380?!? did magnaflow up their prices on everything!?!

I say MRT H

Hey Chief, before you make up your mind about the Magnaflow catted X, I suggest you listen to a MRT catted H-pipe with a Magnaflow cb. I think it sounds great, really classic musclecar sound. Now granted that you want to stick with all Magnaflow it might not change your mind, but I still think you should give it a chance...here it is http://www.mustangracing.com/shop/customer/product.php?productid=63&cat=&page=
