i just got done installing my magnapack cat back on my 96 cobra. these things are awesome sounding! it has alot of bass to it and its not raspy. when its at idle, its very quiet. when u start cruising slow, it is pretty loud even with the stock H pipe. when i gun it, the thing comes alive and everyone knows your name! the install was a major PITA!! word to those who are gonna buy this kit, install like this! u can do it in minutes and not hours!


1. tailpipes
2. mufflers
3. flow tubes

4. use dish washing soap!! its a must! u cant live without it on this! (its for the rubber hangars if u are wondering). i had to use jet dry cuz that was all i had. if u dont use some kind of lube, u will be there all day!

if u install this kit in a way other than how i recommend, u will be there forever. i did my passenger side in 1 hour because i didnt know the pattern. once i figured the pattern, the other side took 10 mins! it also took me 1 hour to hack off the old pipes LOL!
