my attempt to duplicate fireball mega look
had magnaflow mufflers took them off, cut off the tips and placed them as far back as possible, welded on a set of tips i bought on ebay. They are Stainless 3.5" inlet with a 4.5" outlet disel tips 12" long.

they sound pretty good, louder with these tips then the orignal magnaflows. I will take side pics later today, Megas have offset outlet and the body of the muffler is pintched and bigger. unfortenatly i couldnt find anything like it universal so i decided to reuse the magnaflows instead of throwing them away.

If you don't mind me asking, what did this set up cost you? I'm in the market and...sort of local
I wouldn't mind having a similar custom exhaust.

i guess this means people aren't gonna buy the Megas as much anymore. most are probably just gonna just do this now, lol..
