VXR8 Magnaflow

Hmm, in addition to the Wortec vs Walkinshaw zorst question....

Mangnaflow S/S axle back for £425 or full system with crossover for £679.Both prices fully inc of VAT and delivery.

Anybody fitted or heard one, they are T304 stainless and look good quality but the price seems good.

I've heard the cat-back one on an LS2 Monaro. Sounded a bit like my old Milltek on the same car.

It's not so easy to convert all these sounds to words. The Milltek video gives some idea http://www.millteksport.com/media.file.cfm?fileid=...

As before it's clearly not a Wortec sound and is more muted with less hard edge. Pops and bangs are there, but less volume. Quieter at cruise but noise levels picking up when you open the throttle.

Magnaflow stuff is generally very good. I would be surprised if it was at least the equal quality wise of the overly popular exhausts of choice on this forum.

Let me collect mine next week, will fit and 'youtube' a soundclip and then circulate details.

My feeling is that the Walkinshaw may be a bit quiet and its odd that nobody has a demo, whilst the Wortec's fitted on my Monaro's sounded beautiful all reverberated and I suspect would again upset the neighbours.

Fingers crossed an axle back will be without boom but still have a nice tailpipe sound for much less money, who knows.

there is an agent for them here in ireland now www.sohans.ie if thats any better for price

I'd spotted these too benno, at half the price even if its not the hard edge of the wortec its a good price! I had miltek, its more of a v8 muscle car sound than the v8 sports car sound of the wortec

Would like to hear a clip. I'm after a subtle basy tone, not open headers sound.
