Default MAC catback installed!!!!

Sounds ALOT better than the Magnapacks. First thing I noticed is that it was smoother, alot less poppy, and just had a much cleaner tone. It's not nearly as loud as the Packs but it's a good controlled deep sound.

Start up and idle are extremely quiet, almost stockish., at least from the inside. OUTSIDE it was very deep, throaty and just plain bad ****. Sounds great while cruising and WOT sounds better than the Packs. Not as blaringly loud as the Packs, and keeps it's tone well. The Packs are more in your face and has a glasspacky sound, whereas the MAC is more refined and cleaner.

My friend Mattman (another member on this site) got my Magnapacks and he's very happy. The guy who installed it said he liked the Packs better, but it's all subjective. I love my MAC catback and it compliments the MAC O/R Prochamber VERY well. I would suggest this setup for a deep, fairly quiet and throaty sound.

I also got rid of my CEL by having them modify the extra Steeda Mil Eliminator to fit the o2 sensor on the passenger side.

So I get great sound, good looks, and no CEL!

After spending alot of money I FINALLY got my exhaust the way I like it.

Nah prochamber has legs available for those who want to go with LTs. I don't think I'll ever get headers., I'm pretty happy with the way it sounds. It could definately be louder, but that's okay. It sounds good and deep.

POWERWORLD,

Chambered is the way to go, no doubt!
