And i'm in love how this thing sounds now. Absolutly incredible. It's loud, deep, 1st day out with it i got 4 compliments on how good it sounded. Everyone was like ok we know thats not Flows so what the hell are they

I knew this car was missing something & now it finally sounds like a terminaor should. Very aggressive & commanding. I'ts a lil blatty at times but i can control that by controlling how fast & hard i mash the go pedal

Also i did NOT feel like i lost any power or Tq at all. It actually feels like it gets into boost much better & pulls easier. Did a quick blast 1st through 3rd & felt really good. Can't really here the blower as good anymore When we put the car on the lift me & my good friend were amazed that whoever modified the exhaust put an o/r h pipe on & hooked back up the small restrictive stock catback.

Very very pleased but haven't been able to get on it too hard since it's drizzling rain here & my DR's are pretty much bald. One thing i am going to have to play wih though is the tailpipes. The right side is wanting to kick out instead of being straight up & down

Must post a clip! What H are you running?

I'm going to run a upr o/r x and have some mac muffs dabbed into my bassani c/b cause I prefer the bassani look, fit and finish but the mac sounds so good!

Mine fits perfectly, sounds like this just a little quieter because I have catted upr x. When you crack down on it everyone knows what time it is

Would love to put up a clip but my camera took a dump on me bout 2 months ago. I was going to bolt up the MAC o/r h pipe that i ordered from lethal but it already had an aftermarket 2.5 O/R h pipe on it so we just bolted up the catback. So now i have a brand new h pipe here just sitting in the box

Ive been driving it around all day just to listen to the exhaust

Edit: This thing sounds so good with me in the car & the windows down. I'm going to have to get my friend to drive it so i can listen to it go down the street

I love mac's sound but i wish their catback was stainless, fit better and came with bigger tips...

I dont need 3" but i do want good quality.

I think they do have a SS cb, comes with 3.5 inch tips too. Check it out jdsperformance.com

Hmmm... Ill have to check that out. I was going to fab some flowpaths into my bassani piping so i can keep the looks of the bassani but have the sound of the mac.

Still undecided though between the stingers and the mac for my c/b???

How am i finally going to make up my mind! :cuss:

Its between o/r x and mac flowpaths or o/r x or prochamber and stingers for me... :poke: Poking myself... lol

MAC's rock. I've had them on my 03 for 4 years, no cats, Kooks LT's. With a set of stg 2 cams, they really rumble. Good Choice!

:rockon:

My ideal combo would be kooks LT's, O/R X and mac muffs in my bassani piping but its gonna be awhile before i get the kooks stuff...

That setup sounds sick!!

I bought my 04 with the black 3" MAC cb and was too loud. had an VRS OR X pipe and even with a little throttle was so loud made everybody look esp cops. Sold it for magnaflow SS and very pleased. The MAC I sold went on a CO 04 with pypes OR X and sounded much better on his car than mine.

I love loud! Prob would have been perfect for my liking because my bassani o/r x and bassani c/b without baffles isnt loud enough for my liking but sounds great. Looking to go louder now.

Pypes and UPR are the same design from what ive seen on here and i know the UPR sounds great!
