Exhaust: Magnaflow vs. HKS

Just wantin to know what you guys think. These are the two that i have narrowed it down to. If I get the magnaflow how much would a custom pipe cost? If possible sound clips and pics cause i'm too lazy to look. Thanks

I'm sure someone around here has magnaflow.. I had HKS' and they sounded great, prior to that I had Thermal R&D, and they were a little more subtle than the HKS.
Also remember that Exhaust mods for the Type-S are more for just a sound change, unless you plan do to some type of forced induction (i.e. S/C, Tubo).

There is a sound clip on the board of the Magnaflow... it made me decide to get it when i get the money. sounds great.... nice low rumble, not too loud, but sounds a little mean.

Can't remember what thread it was in... just do a search

I haven't done a whole lot of research on it yet... I'm not planning on being able to afford this until next year, unless I decide to wait on the body kit.

But check this site to see if they have any helpful info, the one I'm looking at is part #14832.... http://www.justmagnaflow.com/

I remember the magnaflows sounded good, but I don't remember what they looked like. The HKS mufflers are fucking huge, look way too big for the CL.
