Magnaflows are too quiet unless your using an off road x-h pipe...I started with M/F's but cut them out for stainless MACS, perfect combo for a catted x...

I thought the packs would be too loud, but they're just fine. And I'm a 34 year old fart! Another vote for the packs.

I never even considered getting the Packs because of how loud I heard they were. Well I heard the Magnaflows in person one day and they were kinda quiet. Sounded good WOT but wasn't what I was looking for. So I figured the I would gamble on the Packs and made the right decision. They are perfect!! You won't be sorry.

Love my magnaflows. I wouldn't want them any louder, especially on a long trip.

Depends if you want loud or not. If you want loud, get the packs, or if you do alot of highway driving, go with the magnaflows. I have the SLP Loudmouth and they are supposed to sound the same. I dont think mine are loud enough!

They are bassy and deep. Don't worry, they are not too loud when you have cats. especially stock cats...

Where's the cheapest place to buy Magnapacks? The cheapest I have ever seen is $437.90. That's too much. But I like the sound of them. If I can't find them for like way cheaper I'm going with my other favorite, the SLP Loudmouth for $360.

i have MP's on my car and they sound REALLY good... they are deep and bassy, and sound really good when you get on it. And highway driving ain't that bad IMO.

I got mine from completeexhaust.com Goto their web site to get the phone # and give John a call there. He's real friendly and has great service. The packs were $322 shipped to NJ by UPS ground AND he shipped them out within 20 minutes of me hanging up and emailed me a tracking #! UPS says they will be here Wednesday and I ordered them on Friday @ 5PM. Can't beat that.

He also had the catted X's for $375 but I opted for an MRT catted H from ninosport.com for $460 shipped because I wanted a deeper rumbling sound and a stainless midpipe so I don't have to worry about it rusting out.

I am probably going to order mine from stangnets parts shopper. They are in the mid $300's I think. I have ordered from them before and was happy with their service. Not to mention I live in FL so rather them in GA than someone in California and wait two weeks. You should check out the parts shopper tab at the top of the page.
