i really want the magnapacks but idk how i can fit them on my catback.
already have a mac catback with thrush turbo mufflers which are 14" and o/o. (mac's were rusted out)

i can get magnaflows the same size and will bolt right up.
magnaflows still sound great and will be much easier to install.

That was for Strider...

Did they use some RTV? Those joints rarely seal by gasket alone....

I heard from several people that pypes X pipes have ground clearance issues - something I didn't really want. I was happy to find out that my Bassani X fitted under the car really well and everything levels straight in relation to the undercarriage and catback. I am very very happy with my purchase

Ok thanks for the input. I heard the video and I like the way your car sounds, by the way.

Thanks. I've been wanting to make another vid especially now since the higher pitch tone has gone down a bit. It's just that my laptop is broken and my backup laptop just broke on me and now only works in safe mode lol
