I need help i plan on buying an exhaust with in the next month or so and am not sure which one to buy. Im not trying to kill my budget and these two fit with in it. I plan on adventually upgrading to stage 2 along with other mods (injen cai, headers, downpipe, etc.) The only mods done to the car now are a k&n drop in and a dc sports strut tower bar. By yea anyway which exhaust the vibrant or the magnaflow. thanks for the help.

 

do you want a 2.5" system or a 3" system, the magnaflow is 2.5" and the vibrant is 3". If i were you id spend the extra $200 and get a 2.5" that outflows a 3" but thats just me.

 

and what 2.5" system would out flow a 3"?

 

the corsa. someone did a test with the corsa and then switch to a 3" system, i think they switched to CTI and they actually lost 2 ft/lbs TQ. talk to Bad06SS, him and Fast06SS(Rob) actually called corsa and asked why they didnt make a 3 inch and corsa supposedly said that there is not need to, that the 2.5" flows just the same.

 

i see your point but i guess my problem now becomes money the vibrant and the mangaflow where in my budget and with school im probly going to need that other $200.

 

I vote magnaflow. love the quality, love the sound and love the gain. All around great exhaust. MHO.

 

hey man i understand you completely ive had my wideband and gauge pod sitting on my shelf for a week and a half, i still want to buy my scan gauge and put it all in at once which is why they are still sitting on the shelf and probly will for a couple more weeks. All i can say is save a little at a time, if you want the magnaflow or vibrant them get that, but lets say you run across a person with a corsa on their car, do you really want to say to yourself, "Man i wish i would have save a couple more months and bought that instead of this". Trust me ive done it thousands of times, you think i would learned by now lol.

 

any other input?
