Default Magna flow mufflers

I'm thinking about cutting off the oem mufflers and welding two of these magna flow mufflers http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...d=261008565507
What you guys think?
Thanks

the stock mufflers are stainless and very good quality

if you just want more noise cut the middle resonator out and replace with pipe, you will get the same effect and save money

They are also restrictive and heavy as shit. The muffler he chose is stainless as well. I say do it.

I will wager money there will be NO power gains at all with just the muffler swap

they are twinloop mufflers, its pretty much ideal for the s2k

maintains low end and high end velocity with one muffler

If you like the sound of those mufflers then go for it. If it doesn't work out on the S you can put the stock ones back on or go with something else.
I like Hooker Aero Chamber Mufflers, they have a low tone cruising but as you turn the power up they make a deep growl that sounds good on the S/C V6, 4 cyl. Civic and a S/B Chevy that red lines at 8200 that I've put them on. I first heard them on a S/C Ford 460 and they sound(tone wise) the same on every car I've put them on.

I just like the tips. I was thinking of Installing a test pipe too.

^Good idea. You might as well go single to cut down on the weight.

if you search Gernby had magna flow muffers welded on his stock exhaust and did tests, may be a good read.

OEM mufflers may be heavy as shit but they're not restrictive. Magnaflows will get you an aggressive tone but as earlier posted, exhaust gains are very modest on the S. If your goal is to cut weight and the exhaust is just one part of a broader program, you can improve the quickness when you approach a 150# reduction. How do I know? Try dating a porky girl with the S, you'll feel the difference.
