Magnapack vs Flowmaster

For any of you guys out there that are bored...

Which one sounds better?

I changed from Magnapacks to Flowmaster super 40 cat-back

flowmaster super 40 cat back

YouTube - MAGNAPACK VS FLOWMASTER, FLOWMASTER

Magnapack...

YouTube - MAGNAPACK VS FLOWMASTER, MAGNAPACK

Unfortunately the flowmaster video is not as good a quality as the magnapack video. I used a different camera.

I'm not a huge fan of exhaust like Magnaflows.It can sound alright if you have the right combo,but wiith Flowmasters,all you need to do is bolt a set in as is,and they sound great,anything else added to the equation is a bonus.But that's my opinion.

I like the flows better. Both sound pretty good though.

^^^the advantage to Magna is the lack of drone in my humble opinion. having said that the Flows sound 10/10^^^

Magnaflows are better built and will last longer!

I've done that very thing to my highflow cats on my MAC h pipe i had,it can be done.The reason i did it was because i damaged one,got tired of hearing the rattle so to speak.I have since sold it and went back to having highflow cats but with a x pipe instead.I tell you this,it feels a little more torquier with the cats in,they help with some needed back pressure.If you have a good highflow catted mid pipe,leave it as is,it will not be worth the little gains that it may make in my opinion.If you want sound back.MAC cat back,or Flowmaster 40 series "originals" not the Deltaflow" series will get give you that sound.
My GT has the 40 series "originals" along with the Bassani catted x pipe,and she is pretty loud still.Probably just as loud or close to being as loud as when i had the gutted catted MAC h pipe.
What cat back do you have right now?
