Found Magnaflows for cheap

Hey guys, I posted a thread a few weeks back about getting dual magnaflow mufflers installed for $250. Today I went to a different shop and got a quote for a magnaflow cat-back system for $275 + tax installed. I thought that was a hell of a price. Do you guys agree? By the way, I'm upgrading to a 2.25" pipe without a resonator.

MaganFlow makles quite a few different mufflers. I'd be curious what mufflers you'd be getting with this deal. Also the reputation of the shop...

Anyone change out the mufflers and keep the stock tips? I don't like the "megaphone" or round tip look, but would like some throatier sound

i just assumed that they were reputable.

the price seems kind of low to be honest...so be careful.

the TL mufflers are nicely tucked up into the rear area...
the pipes after the Y have some subtle bends...so piping doesn't
hang too low...

even the muffler tips on the TL exhaust are bent at odd angles to
look straight.

The shop I got my system installed at is located in Merced, CA. It's about a 2 hr drive from the Bay Area. I got everything done for $288.
