Got the MAC OR/X pipe installed

I already had the magnaflow cat back and I'm pretty sure I can feel the horsies with the butt dyno

O/R X + Magnaflow = Awesome.

BTW, yours sound much more raspy compared to mine. Must be a difference in the design of our two X pipes.

Yeah, plus my laptop was sitting too close to it so it was a bit distorted. Yours is stainless steel right? Mine is aluminized steel (mac) But it was very easy to get in there other then MAC didn't put the O2 bungs quite in the right place (driver side near the header had to be stretched a bit to reach)

Mine is aluminized. It's probably just your recording that distorts the sound.

All X pipes have the first O2 sensor holes a bit further down than the stock H pipe. Just gotta follow the wires up and unhook it from that metal tab.

yeah, that's what I did, it didn't move much, but enough to get it on there, burned the hell out of my hand in the process!

I want to get a magnaflow cat back. Where's the cheapest place to get them?

whipster24 · 08-28-2004, 07:58 PM

www.ninosport.com

They have good prices and get it to ya fast!

BolistiK · 08-28-2004, 10:18 PM

how much did you pay for your catbacK?

What's the difference between magnaflow and magnaPACK?

I paid right about 360 shipped for mine and they gave me 20 bucks for the vinyl "mustang" bumper inserts.

magnaflows = more sound deadening insulation (quiet, deep tone but still aggressive at wot)
magnapacks = glass packs (sounds mean but way loud)

packs arent THAT loud, even though my mom says she can hear me pull out of the garage, drive up the street, make a right onto the next street, and make another right and drive down the main road. but hey, they still arent loud enough for me!

Wait until you hear them with an O/R pipe, knowledge boy.

You should have heard her when I fired it up with open headers there. I was working in a 5' deep pit so it was like a big echo chamber under the car! Now that sounded mean

I did that with mine too when we were installing my MAC o/r H-pipe (that I no longer have... ****ing cops). It's fun

Sounds like ass with open headers, though. Pretty loud.
