Yeah the muffler are Magnaflow, don't remember the exact model. I'm very happy with the sound, almost no drone and the sound is here when you need it

I did the 2nd cat delete and then proceeded to muffler delete. The sound was insane but too loud for day to day use. I then proceeded to replace the muffler with Magnaflows. The sound was more refined but on WOT, my interior bits started to rattle and resonate which became intolerable. So off with the Magnaflows and back to stock.

QCisf, what Magnaflow mufflers did you use? Were they larger barreled to contain drone?

Agreed. If the F was my DD, not sure I would have done this.

My Muffler delete car with no cats has about the same drone as a PPE/ISS exhaust car. Toleration is very subjective though.

I honestly don't remember the Magnaflow model. I have almost no drone at low RPM and the 2nd cat delete reduced them a lot (still trying to understand why). The car is less loud on slow take-off but make a nicer growl.

Very nice but bottlenecks any drone?
Borla is a very good option and no drone as ap2s2k mentioned I've ridden in his car so I can confirm.

Looks good! I've been doing a lot of these recently for some interesting reason. They definitely look a lot more aggressive with the chrome blacked out.

I think I was trying to respond to another thread and as I scrolled down, the forums did one of those things that where it jumps you to a separate/different related thread, which ended up being this thread and I posted my post into this thread, haha.
