Custom Magnaflow exhaust question
So there is a thread on clubralliart about setting up magnaflow muffler to stock piping, etc. All of it is axle back, my question is this, If I did get this setup, which would be just the muffler, would I need a tune? I was under the impression that since it is axle back and doesnt involve changing out cat or anything forward of it that I would be good. Please let me know as I plan on doing this tomorrow.

Not really going cheap...Installed muffler today, having custom midpipe made as we speak. Sounds really good now even without the midpipe on there.

Stock midpipe is 2.5, im almost sure of that. I am going with 3in all the way, with no resonator. Muffler is a maglaflow oval. I know some of the other guys that have done this have said the muffler did not sit right. I used a different muffler size on my RA and it sits perfect. I plan on making a thread with pics of the different steps from the muffler to midpipe without resonator.

By the way, as far as sound goes, its excellent. Even with just the muffler on now it is a deep aggressive tone. On the highway its just a very very low exhaust not and when I open it up sounds more like racing exhaust. I am also going to put some vid clips of just muffler setup and then another with muffler and 3in midpipe.

Gibby,
Not sure at the moment, going back to shop tomorrow, I will find out for you and post on this thread. Personally, I like the setup I have because of the fact that it has 3in inlet, which can open things up more if you plan on going mid pipe as well. If you want to keep mid stock, then the rre setup would be the call. Pretty sure they use 2.5 setup all around. Check their thread
