let us know how the magnaflow midmuffler turns out.

I've been following most of the exhaust threads for a while now. Most people who tried no resonator/mid-muffler complained about the rasp.

Even with the dynomax you get a little rasp.

Depends what you are looking for. I am shooting for something a little deeper in tone and less volume.

stage 3 resonator + magnaflow mid muff is the way to go if u want that smooth low deep tone

Mods should make an exhaust compilation thread and sticky it....theres already A LOT of exhaust vids for 3G! haha that'll rock...anyways....since Jazz wanted me to record a clip of my new set up...i drove 40min into the Canyons just for a clip...haha jk...decided to have some fun with the TL...nothing too hard...

Heres the FULL magnaflow set up:
2.25" bent piping (cat to back)
magnaflow ypipe
magnaflow mid muffler 11"
magnaflow mufflers 14" x2
magnaflow 4" slash rolled tips x4

Yeah u mostly hear the intake...but reving sounds cool
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5UlU3UTCo8


ignore those blue tapes...i had my type s rear lip removed to get it re-color matched....so it left the big ass holes i had to cut (i accidently cut too much...clumsy me )

UPDATE:

ok i just installed the new 4" slashed cut rolled tips....ughh it looks like the stock type s tips on steriods (since its bigger)

and guess what...ITS FKN LOUDER...2x louder than b4....ughhh sooo annoyed/stressed.....ok ok in conclusion...big tips = LOUD

my old tips were 3.5" outside and 2.7" inside
this one is 4" outside and 3.7 inside....AICH!

i feel like Tom now...wanna go back to stock..but i cant!!! dammit i really regret not buying Al's type s mufflers *kicks my head

Got the 6x27 magnaflow today.

Holy shit, that thing is huge. Something that you'd see on a big farm truck!

Hopefully work will be slow and I can spend more time working on the exhaust than sitting in front of these displays!

Hah, no worries. The exhaust that's coming out won't have the same tips. They will actually be custom manufactured 2-piece tips(eh, 3 piece if your speaking technically).

I'm diggin your exhaust though. I think you have an exhaust fetish just as I do. =)

Ya, took out the exhaust last night and held it up there.

It'll take up all of the space from the s-bend to about 6" behind the slight bend at the flange up front.

I never expected an exhaust to be such an adventure.........

I think b18 more than has an exhaust fetish, I think after the 3rd setup we thought he had a fetish... Now I am sure he needs to go to Exhaust Anonymous... THIS DUDE JUST KEEPS SWITCHING IT UP.... I guarantee you this magnaflow setup will last no more than 15 days as is....

Al...hhahaha no shots from the side or of the piping...Forgot it was a "top secret project" hahaha

Ok...so I'm really really really considering quads now

Don't know if it's worth it yet though. I guess I'll wait it a little bit an enjoy the current setup until I save up enough

Still obsessed with the way Tom's placement was of the Tanabes
