How good is the quality of MAC mufflers???
I've been shopping around for a new muffler for my V6. I've heard sound clips of MACs and they sound pretty good, but in looking at prices, I've found that they're some of the cheapest mufflers out there. Considering that the muffler I'm looking at is 100% stainless steel, as opposed to other more expensive ones made of lesser-quality aluminized steel, I find this really surprising.
Are MAC mufflers good quality, or are they cheaper for a reason? I asked a similar question on the V6 page, but didn't get too many people with MACs. Anyway, I'm just asking what the general quality of their products are, and if they seem like good long-lasting mufflers. From what I can tell, they seem pretty similar to other high-quality mufflers (i.e. Flowmaster, Borla, MRT, FRPP), but just that their price is cheaper. That's definitely not a bad thing, but I'm just wondering if there's a reason for it. Thanks...
Here's a link to the muffler I'm interested in. It's the first one listed:

I have the MAC mufflers and always get compliments on my exhaust. I have had them for over a year and no rust. I live right on the coast too.
You can hear them on my car at this link. Wait till around the one minute mark.

The mac a/bs are good quality, they sound great and the 4" tips are massive. The only down fall and I dont know if anyone had this issue is that they are a pain in the A** to get them aligned good. To this day, the alignment is still off. The driver side had always stuck out about an 1/8 to 1/4" further out no matter how much I twisted, turned, moved, tweaked, pryed whatever. I am picky on how they look and trying to get them center sucks! My only downfall

I have macs for sale preferably to florida resident. The tips are powder coated black though dunno if anybody is looking for that. Im not a fan of SS or chrome and deleted all of it off of my car, but the mufflers look sick with the powder coated tips, way meaner then shiny stuff,[8D]
