Magnaflows are notorious for droning at 3-4rpm range. It's the same on my truck. Buying a smaller muffler will decrease sound, which will help with the droning. You can't do much. Once you put a silencer on, the exhaust sound would be non-existent.



You should just go obnoxious .... take off the resonator and straight pipe it.

Sorry, this is the link that should work. I'm going to call Magnaflow and see if this will work.

John - that sounds GREAT! The inside sounds great as well. Sure, it's a deeper drone, but that's expected. I'm going with it.

Lastly, I think you should be a movie producer. Your video's are hilarious! I think it's hysterical how you run to your car after placing the camera down. I also liked the last video where after you drove off, all you could see was blue sky, the nice little neighborhood, the house across the street and to top it all off, you have birds chirping in the background. LMAO!!!!!

You crack me up man. Thanks again for putting this together. You contribute a ton to this forum and go out of your way to help other members. You rock!

thats multitasking . I had to delete the vid since I was swerving alot.
