G37 magnaflow cat-back OWNERS FEEDBACK

so i see alot of people bashing on the magnaflow catback,,,this exhaust sounds great not too loud and a nice deep tone very satisfied.
Granted it sounds like absolute **** with berk hfc, cant speak for any other cat/pipe .

So i would like feedback from actual owners or with personal experience with there magnaflow/hfc/tp combo. even if you have the stock cats post your comments with this exhaust

PLEASE if you have no persona experience with this exhaust DONT POST!!!!!!!!!

THANKS

Franky I think u know my opinion on this. I think its a great exhaust for the money. It sounds great, gives the car a much deeper growl and no drone at all at high rpm's. My only complaint is the drone I get at 1800 rpm, but I can deal with that. Its a good exhaust but as with anything, people have their own personal preferences. The important thing is if you like it, if you do, screw everyone else's opinion.

Berk's and magnaflow here and the only droan I get is if I'm in to high of a gear at to low of a speed and try to accelerate. But I'm talking 2000rpm and below. Normal driving and street cruising I'm 2500rpm and above. My cat back came with resonators installed from magnaflow. I get no rasp and have been given compliments on the way it sounds from people with big block chevrolets to small block fords and anything in between. I love the way my exhaust sounds and personally I think it's the best sounding one over all the others but that's just my opinion. The problem with exhausts is that everyone's opinion on them is different because no people like the exact same thing so just be sure to take what everyone says with a grain of salt. I spent months researching exhaust systems before making my purchase.

I cant deal with the drone. Im in Los Angeles, lots of low speed driving on the freeway.

We can argue this till the cows come home.

I say theres a loud drone, you say there isn't.

You complain of a rasp, I hear no rasp.

You keep ASKING ABOUT YOUR RASP, WE KEEP TELLING YOU ITS YOU HFCS.

You're right, it's not a loud exhaust, it's a loud cabin drone under 2K RPMs.
