I have a UPR O/R/X with a Flowmaster cat-back. It's very loud inside and outside of the car, but it doesnt have that "well-tuned car" sound at all. I hope to change my cat-back for a bassani or borla, or something!

Well it just so happens that I have had both Mac and Magnapack catbacks matched with a Magnaflow cattted x-pipe.

Magnapacks w/ Magnaflow x pipe

Mac w/ Magnaflow x pipe

Overall... I feel the Packs/x pipe compliment each other both very well. With the MAC catback... it was almost just too much unrefined noise with the x-pipe.

I like those Magnapacks. Especially when you accelerated. Nice steady tone without any sudden "blaaahhh!" sound.

Well let's see...

First off... when I put the mac catback on and the x-pipe it almost felt as if it was choking up.. like the chambers were not letting it flow thorough enough through out the rpms range.

Now... when I switched to the Magnapacks, that's when I noticed how chokey the mac was. It feels and like it flows smoothly throughout the whole rpm range which is really nice. It actually sounds like it flows better too.

BOTH sound great but I have slowly been liking these Packs more and more as each day goes on. Sometimes I feel like changing it but that's because I heard someone elses car and I'm like damn... but than I hear mine and I'm like dayummmmmmmmm son. lol.

Packs > Mac on the butt/mental dyno to say the least.

The Packs and the Lm2s seem to be rather similar, at least from what I've heard from clips. I love the tips of my Packs though more than SLPs tips.
