im undecided about a catback got it narrowed down between borla and magnaflow. had a borla on last silverado and loved it but heard good things about magnaflow. what yall think?

[Slowverado]

either one is a waste of money...just find an exhaust shop and have them fab something up....you'll see the same gains, and pay MUCH less...just stay away from flowmasters. if i could do it again i would go with one of magnaflow's more "sporty" mufflers instead of my bullets. my entire unbeatable exhaust system cost 510, from header flanges to end of the pipes, dr. gas x pipe, full 3" with mandral bends and 2 dynomax bullets.

thanks slowverado i may take your advise and run true duals, still not sure on whick muffler though

[BigKID]

I am on my second Magnaflow system on my truck and have been extremely pleased with both of them. I will recomend magnaflow to anyone wanting a nice sounding, good performing exhaust. Check my sig for pics and a vid of my current setup.

thanks guys for all your help im goin this weekend 2 talk to some exhaust shops about duals

[Slowverado]

good deal man, keep us posted on your decision.

[Tiburon]

I don't think Magnaflow is a waste fo money. My single 3" Magnaflow exahust was $160 installed.

[BigKID]

I believe Slow was refering to the complete prefab catback kits from the formentioned companies. ;)

I'm thinking about a corsa dual side exit if it really sounds like what is on their website. Anyone ever heard it in person?

[BigKID]

I havent heard one personally but everyone on tech that has one says it is exactly as described on the webpage.

I would really like to know how you did this, I cant find headers under 600 bucks?

I don't think his price included headers ;)

:( Well dang. How much gain over stock would shorties be, I found a set of edlebrock's for 258.xx

[BigKID]

I wouldnt waste my money on shorties. I have seen dynosheets with gains of only 4rwhp peak on the top end and didnt do anything down low. Save you money for a good set of long tubes or midlengths. I think you can pick up a set of LaPoles for around 550. They are midlengths very similar the the Hamms I have. Otherwise just save for a set of ASM, TOG, or Dynatechs(Supermaxx/FLP).

[5.3Vortec]

What kinda gain would I get with a good set of long tubes?

[Slowverado]

15-30rwhp....people have seen all kinds of different numbers

[BigKID]

Although my dynos were nearly a year apart, with similar weather conditions and the only change being Hamms and true duals, I went from 263rwhp to 280rwhp with a nice gain under the curve.
