Cat backs?
I just done a x-pipe on my car. I love the tone it has now. Now i want to get the rest of the stock exhaust off it. I have a few in mind and want to see what u guys think would be the best.
1. MAC 2.SLP 3.Dynomax which one would work the best?

Ok, here goes.....IMHO
1. MAC-mediocre quality, ie fit & finish, extremely loud. 2. SLP-Good quality, obnoxiously loud, very expensive. 3. DYNOMAX-Decent quality and sound. After an exhaustive search and lotsa listening to sound boards on the net, I went with the Magnaflow C/B on my car. All stainless steel construction, straight-thru muffler design, outstanding quality, and very competitive pricing. Installation was a breeze, and the sound is amazing-very nice deep rumble at idle that turns downright mean at WOT. I've been very happy with it. Chris

BORLA! I JUST LIKE TO SPEND MONEY.
I like the sound of the mangaflow also. Even on the 4 bangers they sound good. And you can't go wrong with stainless!! The mac sound like a drum is banging in the back seat on the highway. I had them for a couple of years.

I would spend the money for stainless if you had it. A slp catback is going to be extremely loud if you have an o/r x pipe. Out of those 3 I would say mac.

A buddy has complete mac from headers back and i love the way it sounds. Mac has them all beat on prices. Right now i have welded in imcos. They are loud and sounds good but i know the stock piping is hurting my flow. No flow no go right? Thats what i am after.

I think the mac is a chamber muffler. They restrict some but not bad. I have an aerotech that I want to put on something. Stainless and open in side. I bet it is loud! It was cheap off ebay. Poor guy lost money when I showed up.

Ive had two SLP catbacks and loved each. Fit and finish is excellent. With that said, the LM1's will be loud with an o/r x. You could still go with the LM2's or the powerflos though.
