How big around is it? I have a Banks and a MBRP that are similar in length that I was to use, but the Banks is much bigger around than the MBRP. Both are 4" in and out. Just tryin to get an idea on what might sound better.

thanks. thats kind of what i thought on the see through them. im wanting to stay away from chambers because of the hp loss. but want the deep sound. i may try the magnaflow. idk. i want something that sounds deep at an idle but dosent sound like crap under boost like the chambered mufflers.

For sound control and good flow, Corsa would be my number 1 followed by Magnaflow.
I agree. Also, try the DB series, from Corsa. That, if ya don't need a complete system & want just the muffler. Borla maybe too.

3" seems near the top, maybe 3 1/2", but ya don't wanna...never mind. Why not just get a 3" & call it a day? Beyond that, if u want mandrel bends, let alone a place that has 3 1/2" or larger capability, it's gonna cost you.

Stock sound levels will be harder to come by as she gets bigger diameter.

I'm referring to the length of the muffler, not the I/O diameter.

BTW, my catback wont be anything less than 3.5"

I'll be stepping up in cubes sooner or later and I don't want to be doing things twice. Plus, a 3" Y pipe should merge into something bigger than a single 3"

Gotcha, I gotta think a Big Block style case is gonna check in ~22-26" long. I thought of that after, maybe Mike meant length. Oh well.

BTW, how many people on here are running 3 1/2" piping?

I've had the 22" magnaflow before. Not a fan. I want something quieter. I'll add a 3.5" cutout when I want to get roudy. Best of both worlds.

I have a 32" magna flow, sounds pretty good i guess. Stay away from flowcrapper's with FI. The added heat and exhaust flow broke the baffle's on my exhaust on two different mufflers. That was a PITA and sounded really bad after a while.
