Im just curious to see some numbers side by side.. I wonder if we have more people here with GT Takeoffs or Magnaflows..? If you went duals, please note it, and if you went X / Y / H pipe, and where its positioned.

To start things off.. Ive got dual Flowmasters run in a "true dual" set up right now, with 12" resonators to cut down on the popping. I plan on adding an H-pipe shortly, and hopefully pulling the resonators out for a louder sound after I get a CAI pushing back more air.

I went with a single Magnaflow because I didn't want to have to modify or change my rear bumper...yet. After the warrantee is up I'll get a dual exhaust with an o/r h-pipe and headers.

When I buy my v6, that weekend I'll be getting the GT Knockoffs and slapping it on. I want to do the X-Piping and get GT duels...

I've always like the X pipe rather then H/Y

I'm replacing the single GT take-off and my JBA duals arrived today, but I need the bumper cut. I'll try and have my body shop do it on Monday. Just had a K&N intake put on my wife's Vibe and they could have put on the duals on if the bumper was cut... now I have to wait a bit long ::sigh::

I want duels guaranteed since I think I should go all the way if I'm changin something. I love the sound of GT mufflers, and love the V6 designed duels by JBA. Magnaflow is also good. I may get both GT mufflers and just get a custom piping from the best muffler shop in town.
Not sure yet, need to think more and save a bit of cash.

Too early for a full review, but I put my coffin on today and LOVE it. Burned through half a tank of gas ripping around Georgia back roads. Deep, burly sound. I'm just thrilled.

Right now i'm torn between magnaflow and JBA. Hopefully within a month I will have one or the other.
Another question I have is that I was looking into getting JBA headers for my car and was wondering if I get them, do I need to get a JBA exaust then, or that dosn't matter? Any info is appreciated since this is the fist car I have had that I am doing mods to. Thanks

Flowmaster, single, a classic 40 for now, until the dumb muffler place brings in the super 40's
