Magnaflow Cat back for 2011 g37x

Does anyone have the above mentioned cbe?

I was looking at it...sounds good...would use F.I non-res test pipes in conjunction with it. I also have an R2C intake.


MagnaFlow 16820 Cat-Back Performance Exhaust Systems | Free Shipping

Feedback? Comments? Concerns? Please share couldnt really find anything with google on it..

thanks

Not sure about Magnaflow man. The flex pipes on my CBE cracked and got them replaced at a local exhaust shop. They replaced those pipes with their own stuff and zero buzz/rattle after that.
Magnaflows are cheap and so is their quality.

they sound good. Magnaflow are major exhaust component manufacturer, you'll see most of the other vendors selling CBE using their parts.

No CEL and sounds awesome

it was the weave around the flex pipe that was cracked. Not sure how it cracked but definitely not due to rubbing or anything like that. I'll post some pics after but no buzzing or rattling after that. Talked to Magnaflow about the flex pipe as it came with a life time warranty, and they asked me to ship the whole thing back to them !!!!

Yeah, I wouldn't go with the Magnaflow for your G. In this case, you get what you pay for, and this CBE barely costs as much as just other axle-backs out there. Very few people have this system on as well, so it makes me think it's not your best possible option when it comes to exhausts. Just my 2 cents.

I have Magnaflow full CBE...I love it and it has a deep growl. I don't know why every1's knocking it.

Check my recent thread to see pics of it.
