Magnaflow axle back system

Drnick · 01-16-2022, 03:34 PM

Has anyone installed this system?
And if so, any pros or cons.

You're only going to get a sound difference, until you start pumping more than 800 WHP.

The only experience that I've had with Magnaflow is a muffler that came on a truck I bought. It rotted through in less than a decade. For being stainless, I expected better lift. I don't know if that's a common thing with their products, but that's my experience.

The part throttle drone was pretty bad… AWE Touring has zero drone was a big improvement over the Magnaflow axle back, IMO.

Get the AWE, better grade of stainless and better sound.

I actually tried to order their system for my ZLE six months ago, but it was on a long long backorder.

I’ve installed magnaflow on a Supra, excellent product,
I’ve checked out AWE’s website, and from what
I’ve seen, there axle back system,has no
Exhaust valve’s whereas the magnaflow has
Provision to install the oem exhaust valve actuators.

I have the AWE touring and love it! No drone, awesome sound, and great quality!

arpad_m · 01-16-2022, 09:58 PM

I'm sure AWE's system is good, but no valves, no sale as far as I'm concerned. One of these days I'll swallow the bitter price tag and get me a Corsa exhaust.

The magnaflow has awful drone. If your want valves get the Borla s-type.

Drnick · 01-17-2022, 01:49 PM

Borla list a catback for coupes, but no
Catback, nor axle back for verts

Kooks AB here. Sounds awesome outside. Drones inside between say 1800-2200, so I just downshift one gear, no drone.

Im pretty sure theres been quite a few people here with borla systems on verts and i believe they said they all fit. May want to wait for someone to chime in that has one.

The NPP Corsa is pretty nice as well. No drone and is pretty quiet with valves closed while being wild with valves open.
