I have the regular magnaflow and was thinking of instead of just getting a new system I'd have some new mufflers welded in...

Problem is I don't know which is which except that they don't use the actual magnapack mufflers in it.

Anyone know? Thanks

the magnapack isn't a muffler, it's a resonator like slp.
the mp is a cylindrical cannister,and the mf is a regular oval muffler.

the regular magnaflow mufflers have offset inlet and outlets, but the magnapacks are a straight cylinder. they won't fit right up.

you can order magnapacks without getting the entire catback. I did. Welded it to my stock catback in place of my mufflers.

So, a 'flow is a glaspack, with a generous amount of
fiberglass/mineral glass,
while a 'pack has no 'glass, its essentially an arrangement
of tubes?

Has anyone ever cut a 'pack open?

Actually they are both straight through, the Magnaflow just has more rock wool in it (we at Magnaflow dont use fiberglass, due to its lack of durability)

The difference is because of the bigger body, we can use more rock wool inside the Magnaflow system then the Magnapack system which makes the vehicle quieter or louder.

They both do have rock wool in them though.

The rock wool is basically processed lava rock with a temperature rating of close to 3000 degrees so you do not have to worry about it burning up over time like fiberglass will-
