You'll be adding a res. soon.
You know, I was just looking at that exhaust... That cant be a no resonator setup... because there is only one "muffler" I think its no mufflers with a resonator, in which case he wont have to worry about rasp

it's loud. i'll warn you. plus, your tips will rust, "quality SS" my arse. keep them shined up with chrome polish whenever you wash the car and you'll be okay. make sure if you are going to weld it that you have it setup perfectly, sometimes you gota shift the fitment a bunch of times to get it to sit straight. other than that, thumbs up!
EDIT: to the previous post, the no resonator setup only has 1 muffler. hence why it's insanely loud.

With the muffler placed centrally it really isn't bad at all! I've had mine this way for almost 3 full years now.

That's the exact same cat-back I had on my SVTC. With stock manifolds, Y-pipe and cats it was very quiet (almost no louder than stock) when cruising and sounded great when under full throttle, while still not being very loud.
Even after installing WR headers, y-pipe and a Magnaflow high-flow cat with my 3L, it still wasn't raspy, it still didn't drone, and it still wasn't obnoxious at all. IMO it was one of the best sounding 6-cyl cars I've ever heard.
As far as quality and longevity, it acquired nothing more than normal surface rust as any aluminized exhaust piping would, and the tips stayed perfect over the ~3 years (and two winters) I had it installed.

Could you post the model number of the magnaflow muffler or at least the physical size of it please. I miss my catback on my last car and now I'm making one myself (ie: a exhaust shop)

Not to get off topic, but is it best to exhaust clamp that beast together or weld it? Obviously welding would be ideal but for those of us who don't have a welder or want to pay a shop to do it, will clamping it pose any problem down the road?
