hi im about to get the mmw headers and s-pipe i got a inj cai and a magnaflow catback exhaust i was wondering if anybody has this setup and how it or thier exhaust will sound??? should i get resonators??or there wont be any rasp,,someone please help?>?

 

it will be very loud, you should look into getting about 30 inches worth of resonators, unless you like the way it turns out sounding.

 

k thnx for the tip...so has anybody here have a similar setup....i heard the theres a problem wit installing the magnaflow catback wit the mmw headers and s-pipe is this true?

 

Not true, it fit perfectly fine on my friends tc. FYI its gonna be sorta loud and a bit raspy. Good luck

 

Dude, I have that exact set-up and it ROCKS! I have a Magnaflow High Flow Cat and 18" Resonator as well. The car has a real mean nasty low growl to it. Little to no rasp at all... GET IT AND BE STOKED!

 

Any way you could get a sound clip. I know cars, but cant weld. did you have your 18" Resonator welded on or clamped? what did you do about the part that runs into the cat, where u cut off to connect the exhaust?

 

I actually shot some video driving the other night. It was cool but there was too much traffic. Anyways, if I don't get outta work too late tonight I'll try and do a better one later on...

As for the Resonator, I have a Miller MIG welder so I just hooked that shizah up myself:



What you're looking at was originally the mid pipe of the Magnaflow cat back exhaust. I just chopped a portion off and welded it to the resonator. Then added the hanger to finish it up. A perfect fit!

 

Okay, so here's the vid. Enjoy:

Keep in mind it was wet and my Kumho's are nearly bald...

 

wow nice dude ur car sounds mean!!!im totally going for the set up...urs sound mean even if its auto..cant wait to install it on my manual tc..

 

Hehe, thanks man! It def sounds wwwWAY meaner in person. Prepared to be psyched once you get yours set-up! I can't wait to hear what mine is going to sound like once I install the supercharger I've got sitting here...

 

hey where did you get your magnaflow high flow cat? wont you loose some hp for having a cat?

 

I just finished my exhaust and it sounds great. I have Injen short ram intake, mmw header and s-pipe, a magnaflow 14 in. oval high flow cat, then a 5 in. round 14 in. long magnaflow resonator, and then at the back a precision muffler axle back (6 in. round 14 in. body magnaflow muffler)

It has a real low tone at low rpms and is real deep sounding at wot, and the most important thing imo is it has absolutly no rasp what so ever. Even when i take off after letting the engine warm for 1 minute still not one tiny raspy sound its all deep and low tone.

 

I got the cat along with the resonator from one of the websites linked off of the magnaflow site. Can't remember which one though. As for hp, it's a high flow cat. There's next to no hp loss as far as I can tell...

yyyyyeah man, glad you're blazin' the Magnaflow / MMW set-up too!

BEST. SOUND. EVER...
