First I would like to say it was cool getting to meet you in person and congrats on the Raffle!

Now that you've heard the magnaflow exhaust on that SC in the Exhaust show-Off what do you think? That thing rumbled!!!


Also, is this your GS?

Is the Magnaflow exhaust a cat back? Can it be fitted on the 2nd gen GS? I am getting a little tired of my timid sounding L-tuned exhaust.

Hameed-

No it is not a catback... I wish. They have the ss mufflers with tips welded on already... sounds pretty mean. Bob (SoCalSC4) has Magnaflow on his GS.

it wont be timid anymore if you get rid of the Y pipe and have a H pipe fabricated.... Member "Dee" did this to his exhaust ( i think its a greddy) and it sounds remarkebly louder...

Thanks Man, it was good meeting you too!

I'll definitely post the photos when they're on!!! Based on what I'v ebeen told, there is no way the GS will sound like a Civic, so they're keepers.

Not always... The difference between the H and the X is minimal... Mainly the sound. I know on mustangs that is true too... I have had both and dynoed them both...
