Well if they are claiming that , the person who is selling it, i dont believe that. When i bought my old airraid system it claimed 20-25 hp from that . Like i said i hope that its true but i after being on here and knowing this i just dont see how its true. Just my $0.02. But im glad that you like your system which is whats most important .

Oh yeah nice stang BTW .

No flame intended here either. If this system gives the gains that you claim, it IS the breakthrough exhaust system that everybody has been looking for, for several years.

Well, if you dont want to believe the results, thats fine by me. Eventually, someone will purchase these parts and report hp increases which nay sayers here wont believe. Its typical, but thats fine. Ill take my hp and enjoy it.

For whats its worth, i bought my Catback from Don Walker... When i went over to magnaflow, they gave me a free catback. So i have an extra one.

Well if they are claiming that , the person who is selling it, i dont believe that.
Claiming? Lmao. i saw it with my own eyes. I also watched the Dyno session on the HD F150 there, which btw made some increased power with a catback.

Why is it no one can believe a exhaust company with an R&D Facility can engineer something that makes power??

Does it always have to be a tuner?

When the hell did anyone say anything about a tuner . Like i said i dont believe it ive been here over 2 years and never once heard of gains from an exhuast. You just said you got a free system from them right. Well i would say anything they wanted me to say if i was geting ***** from them anyone would. Like i said no flame intended but i dont believe it. If its true good competition well make better parts for all of us in the end.

That looks like it uses the same Magnaflow muffler that I used to have on my truck. I bet it uses the 14568, if so I am sure you are happy with it, as I really liked that muffler.

It is a very good choice for a stock to mildly modded Lightning.

Umm, ok... I going to just stop right here. Im now being called a liar. LMAO. I guess it wasnt my truck i saw on a dyno either.


As far as being here for 2 years and never seeing an exhaust system make $$, ask around and find out how long the Magnaflow setup has been out. That might answer your own question. I will tell you, it hasnt been out for no 2 years. I do notice a lot of doubt and scrunity between the L community and thats really to bad. You may miss something because of it. Good luck to you in your quest for more hp my friend.

Don, in the morning ill go look and see if that muffler actually has a part # on it. Ill let you know if its the same #. I dont think so though.

Hehe
That was done in the parking lot of the Home Depot

A little sand paper and a can of rustolium spray paint.

I had posted some pics of my traction bars last year and everyone jumped all over me for my rusty diferential cover. So I took care of it.



LOL

Kevin, drop it man, there is only 4 or 5 people on F150online that are supposed to make solid gains with anything. And if you don't follow them, forget it, you get razzed.

Nice kit! See ya on the other boards...

Hey ****,

Is just me, or do the tips look a little off? Believe me, I'm not trying to bash you. I've actually been looking into the Magnaflow catback myself. Yours are the first pictures I've seen. However, the tips don't seem to be at the same angle as the openning. Do you know what I mean?

-Edward
