I love my cat-back also.....but I noticed that your tip comes out parallel to the ground, whereas mine kinda slants down. I like the look of yours better....maybe Brandin can elaborate...my kit # is 15618. Magnaflow is definitely the way to go.

looks like your exhaust tip is rolled as well, while mine is flat.

I, personally, prefer the rolled tip.

I agree totally. I have the same time as you (the flat tip), and I also prefer the rolled tip to the one that I have. As far as Flowmaster goes, why would anyone want to pay just as much for a non-stainless system? I love my Magnaflow, and bought it on the recommendation of the guys on this forum.

Glad you like the sound, as I'm seriously thinking of using that muffler for my truck. The Magnaflow SS catback uses 2.5" pipe, which isn't exactly what I'm looking for. I'm going dual 3" but I think I'm going to take the 4" into a hard 90* bend and run it out before the rear tire.
If you want a more readable dyno pic, send me your email address and I'll shoot it out to ya.
