magnalow 12468 and high flow cats?
As you guys may have known, I recently added a Magnalow 12468 muffler. The muffler shop did a really good job installing it and re-aligning the tips the really look as good as stock. The muffler sound really good right up to full throttle then it looses that nice rumble.
I have enough money to purchase high flow cats but not a cat back. Has anyone installed high flow cat's with this muffler? If so how did it sound? I really like the 12468 up until WOT then it looses that grunt and sound like a sort of flapping in the wind.
Again has anyone installed high flow cats with the muffler? Let me know.

I have a Magnaflow Catback on my truck, but before I installed it, I removed the rear cats on the stock midpipe and that alone made it a lot louder, even with the stock muffler setup. I don't sneek up on anyone with this setup. At WOT, it is rather loud in my opinion.

I have that muffler and dynatech long tubes with their hi flow cats. It's louder than it was, but not as loud as a bud's with long tubes, high flows, and a silver bullet. No flapping noise, sounds good.

I have since upgraded to the JDM Silver Bullet system, and it sounds awesome, although it's quite a bit louder than the single Maggy. .....oh, and the tips are bitchin' 

I agree. I have ordered a pair of SS tip to change the stock ones. I am still wondering if I should put on th high flow cats and then see what happens.

Did you put on the long tubes before or after the high flow cats. I am leaning towards trying the high flow cats with the muffler. By the way, do you have a sound clip?

First I put on the muffler, with stock manifolds and 4 stock cats. Sounded good, louder than stock, but not real loud. I then deleted the front two cats, and it got a little louder, not much. Then I went for the full meal deal and got the dynatech headers with their mids with high flows. Again it got louder and this time a little deeper tone. Sorry, no sound clips.
I have a magnaflow 12468 on my truck, no rear cats, and 2-3.5" tips.. kicked out Lightning style infront of rear tire.
I dont have a blower on mine, yet, but its pretty loud.
I'm actually looking at ways to make it quieter in the cab.
