The higher cost of the Magnaflow systems is due to they are completely stainless steel which Flowmaster is not, and has low tolerances to loud volume and interior noise. You can buy the Magnaflow kits $200 or so cheaper on summit racing, and performance peddler though.

The Flowmaster 50 series offers a nice low tone that should keep the wife happy, and still remain noisey outside.
