Anyone have the Magnaflow cat-back?
Hi all,
I was doing some exhaust research and i am growing very fond of the magnaflow 3 inch cat-back exhaust. initially i was afraid of too much noise, but that has been curbed aside. my truck will be an F-150 screw with a 5.4
things i like about it:
1. 3 inch single pipe(good for low end)
2. Stainless steel.
3. truckin magazine did a dyno test of this system on a screw and found a rear wheel gain of 15 hp and 2 ftlb of torque. those are real figures that really got me sold.
for anyone that has this system...
How is the quality of all the pieces? Was installation easy?(i have installed a Gibson before and that was pretty easy)
and most important question........ Has your MPG changed after the system was installed?
thank you so much.

I don't have a Magnaflow. I've got a Jardine partially because of Mike Troyer's (Superchips) recommendation. While I really like my Jardine I see that Mike now likes the Magnaflow better because of the torque increase and lack of a slight drone around 65 mph. If I had to replace mine today I'd go with a Magnaflow. IMO go for it.
