Default Magnaflow or flowmaster?

Anyone have either? Magna flow has a cat back and axle back while flowmaster has axle back. Which sounds more deadly?

Can't say that I've heard either on a 2010 in person, but I like Magnaflow's products.

I have a Flowmaster American Thunder on my 08 V6. Sounds GREAT in the lower RPM's. But when I slam the gas peddle all the way down, it get's a bit ricey sounding. Don't like that.

I have a buddy who use to work at car shop and Dyno'ed cars. He said that MagnaFlows added more HP than the Flowmasters.

But then again I've heard some killer dual Flowmasters that just have that deep, gurgly, aggressive sound to them that all mustangs should have.

Check this out.

Have you listed to sound clips on YouTube or sought them out on the web yet? That's what I would do. Find as many sound clips as you can and listen, listen, listen

I have heard both and they pale in comparison to the deadliest sounding exhaust out there-- Spintech prostreets. You don't know until you here then in action-- bad *** wot sound.

Magnaflow can't really think that i've used any of their products but lots of guys I know have run them on everything from vettes/camaros&stangs as stated they have a deep throaty sound without seeming to be obnoxious while cruising but when you floor it they let you know

I've got SLP loudmouth on mine, they really talk! Haven't heard them on a three valve yet, though. Not to loud at idle, but way louder than my buddies flowmasters at WOT!
