Anyone here have a magnaflow cayt back then added a mag catted x....If so what was your impression ? did it change the sound of your catback. or was it just louder ? Was it worth it ? If you had to do it over would you change anything ? Im thinking of adding the catted x and just wondering what to expect. Hate to spend the cash then regret it.
Add a mag catted x ???

Stay with the stock H
I did this and I could feel the loss in low end torq and it changes the exhaust note. I think the sound with the stock h pipe sounds more nascar, with the catted x the sound will be exotic all the way with a little drone. I have read you can get most of the torq back with a custom tune, I have not looked in to this because I really don't want to void my warrenty yet. I just reinstalled my stock h last night and all the low end torq is back and sounds better. I will have track time comparison next week, my plans are for a off road h once I start changing pullies and retune the car. I have also considered hacking off the two top converters on the stock H, If anyone has done this please tell.

Sound definitely gets more exotic with the catted x-pipe versus catback only. Drone is more, but that is cured by Bassani baffles. I didn't notice any SOTP drop off in TQ with the x-pipe versus not. I dyno'd at 407/386 RW with the x-pipe, catback, and 9" AFE filter.
Peace!
Peace!
catted x
Sorry I am going to hold on to it for now, I got it at a good price off of ebay.

I had a mangaflow x installed after my CB, and took it off 3 days later. The sound was, IMO, way too high pitched and the drone was absolultely horrible. I plan on going with an aftermarket H.
