O/R H and magnaflows...sound good?

whyask · Aug 24, 2007

the reason for this radom post , i have the O/R h and no mufflers (wich I got pulled over for yesterday, damn NOISE nazzies) but i have the magnaflows in the garage.. ? do they sound good with that pipe or are they too quite..? Im looking for that crazy 60's rumble but I dont have the money right now to buy a whole new set of mufflers, will these do the trick ...I tried the search forum but NO go on the same setup...

magnaflows suck I hate them they sound like rice

Warrior 102 · Aug 24, 2007

my choise would be bassani or mac mufflers.............................

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 24, 2007

you got pulled over yesterday? That was inevitable! Sorry to hear it man. Yeah bassani or flowmaster would sound good. I bet Mac's would too. Never heard magnaflows w/ o/r h myself.

I just went back with a prochamber (have a thread about it) and I have the weld-in magnaflows. I will admit that the sound isn't nearly as good with this combo as it would be with a flowmaster/other type of muffler. It's incredibly quiet which I can live with at the moment.

I don't know how the hell magnaflow mufflers sound like rice however Never heard of anything crazy like that before.

flows or macs only give you a deeper tone with drone. The prochamber is gonna be quieter than any H or X at idle, when over 2K it just f'n screams. I've heard plenty of X's and H's with magnapacks and it doesn't sound that bad.

d98gt · Aug 24, 2007

doesn't exactly scream with the magnaflows They're just too quiet of a muffler to allow it I imagine magnapacks on the other hand would be loud

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 24, 2007

yup i can testify for the magnapacks and o/r h or x. check sig

Hahaha, thats definitely a v6 - no way thats a GT. I am currently running a MAC O/R H with a MAC Catback and I would shoot myself in the skull if my car sounded like that.

And to the original poster, the O/R H and Magnaflows is not a good combo - in my opinion. It will be quiet at idle, and its going to give off some machine gunning when you finally get on it. I had an O/R H with Magnaflows (the traditional mufflers) - but I also had LT's. The LT's deepened the exhaust note considerably and there was no machine gunning what so ever. It was a great setup, sounded stock when normally driving and then got crazy when you stepped on the gas.

I heard sound clips of my combo WITHOUT LT's and it was no where near the same. I'd throw them on there for now and save up for a chambered muffler (that are not straight-thru like the Magnaflow's).

I think I am currently on my sixth exhaust setup, haha. I've had two different sets of longtubes, will be going on my third set soon, 3 different midpipes and four different catbacks. I did a lot of mix and matching, so I've heard quite a few combinations. I love the three piece MAC Setup because I can change out my O/R Prochamber and O/R H without having to remove the legs.

Again this is all just my opinion, exhaust is mainly personal preference - go with what your ears tell you kicks ass.

If you want a real sound clip of an O/R H and MAC Catback, let me know and i'll shoot one tomorrow.

^+1, btw Blinkstang i loved the way your LT's,O/R H,and Magnaflows sounded.....sounded mean, i have your vid saved on my fav's on youtube!

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 25, 2007

ahaha yeah, i copy + pasted the wrong URL. Fixed

whyask · Aug 25, 2007

ok so I got them put on last night... and wow, much much quiter and they still sound weird at WOT, (PLUS CHRIS THERE IS STILL A LEAK SOMEWERE...hahahaha) would a set of bassanis sound clean ...

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 25, 2007

Still a leak?!?! and it's not at the mufflers location? Hmm, that's just odd, i had my head down there while it was running and i didn't hear anything besides it coming out the tips.

whyask · Aug 25, 2007

ya I think when they hooked up the mufflers a bolt somwere must have came loose.. either way nothing an impact wrench cant fix... I think im gonna go with a clean chambered muffler for the raspy 60's style sound !

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 25, 2007

i second that notion

CobraRed_96_GT · Aug 25, 2007

you still getting a CEL?

whyask · Aug 25, 2007
