Long story short i have an mrt catted h paired up with a mac catback which sounds sick. my chrome tips were rusting so i decided to paint them black. . and its startin get get crappy lookin so i'll have to repaint. i might be getting chrome rims tomorrow so it wont match, and i dont really feel like painting them once a month. can you guys tell me what you think of the sound of this mustang which is how mine would sound with magnapacks?

i happen to think it sounds nasty but my dad was like ugh that sounds like azz. so im just wondering if i have bad taste haha. i think it sounds realll deep and nice

also a dumb question. . . why is it that magnaflow has holes drilled in the bottoms of their tips. . . . so sh1tty looking

ehhhh its not bad, id rather see you get somethign else, it sounds too fartish, idk, if u love the set up you have now, why not just buy tips for your car and have them welded on? it will cost you so much lesss than getting a whole new set up, and i belive the hole in the magnaflow tips is for the water/condensation that travels thorugh the exhaust to exit or drip out easier...idk

yeah thats true. . . i actually just found some that are the right inlet and outlet sizes, but are 18inches long and i could use like 19 inches. i guess a shop could cut a small piece of 2.5in piping to add to make the tip a little longer. would i just go to any exhaust shop i guess? any guess on cost?

yes....you cna go to any exhaust shop and you just show them where and how far out you want them to sit, then they will weld them on for you, should take about 20 min, make sure you inspect it right after they finish it to make sure the welds will hold, and they did a decent job, i think it is the best way out in your position, and just have them put the tip on an inch further out to make up for it....goodlcuk dude

nice thanks man. i'm glad you suggested that instead of me being an idiot and wasting 400 dollars. if i get those chrome rims tomorrow i'll order the ones i linked in my last post and just have them throw them on. gotta find somplace reputable though ahah

ahaha yea thats the truth, try to avoid meinke or monro muffler, try to find a legit shop ahaha...i can't believe those places stay in business, but worst case, try one of those places, just keep your eye on em

yeah i could picture them mocking up the tips and welding them while the tailpipes are still on the car and burning something at meineke lol rather than taking them off and being legit. i got some time so i'll take a look around

hahaha hilarious...yea do a little reasearch..got a ? for you though, does your oil pressure guage ever move really really slightly, like almost not noticable unless you watch it? i am lookin at a 02 gt with 61k and it moved just a little bit...was'nt sure if yours did that.

Burtonsnow157

hmm, when im driving, my oil pressure stays constant. it looks like it raised a little like it used to be at 1130 am and is now at like 1230pm but i might just be imagining that. it never really goes up and down though
