Default question on magnaflows

hi everybody.
well i'm looking through old threads for exhausts, some people have the street series magnaflow 14829 series, and some people have the race series 14851.
whats the difference between the two?
i checked the prices, and the prices are the same for both.
can someone explain this to me?

All I know is that they have a different tone, but look the same. I think the sound is more umm what's the word.....not ricier but louder more noticeable. Maybe? I had 14829's on my SC4 and they sounded almost stock at idle, accerleration was deeper and throatier. At WOT it really opens up with a deep tone and lets people know you have a V8.

IMO go with the 14829's, you can't go wrong with them. They are a great choice as you can tell by the many SC4 drivers that own them.

The street series is about 1/4 as loud as the race series.

the Street series have an awesome low growl. Sounds something like a 350Z but just a little bit louder... good stuff
