I'm guessing that mid muffler was only a couple inches shorter than the OEM.  The muffler itself is basically identical to OEM in size and locationj just add two sweet tips.

The muffler is where the resinator is on yours with just two pipes going out the back...no muffler under teh bumper to bang on rocks & trees. _____________________________ (in reply to Doc Olds) Post #: 11 RE: MAGNAFLOW H3 Alpha Exhaust - Very Close to AVAILABL... - 2/7/2008 7:11:02 AM    Steve #1 Posts: 412 Joined: 7/29/2007 From: TEXAS Status: offline I don't understand going with a cat back system when everything goes back in the same place as stock.  Back when stock pipes had crimps in 'em there was a reason to switch 'em out.  Why not just swap the muffler and save a few hundred in cash?

If I were going to keep the muffler in stock location I would just replace the muffler but I'm looking to move the muffler near teh driveshaft lke gibson does...I just don't like gibson that much. _____________________________ (in reply to Steve #1) Post #: 13 RE: MAGNAFLOW H3 Alpha Exhaust - Very Close to AVAILABL... - 2/7/2008 12:11:13 PM    Doc Olds Posts: 3805 Joined: 7/11/2007 From: Boat Town USA (Michigan 48045) Status: offline I can't speak for all of the brands of CAT backs, but Magnaflow and Borla have perfect mandrel bends.  Magnaflow has a machine that costs a fortune and can bend some big dia. pipe smooth as a can be.  Quite impressive if you have ever seen one.  I checked out the machine at Wolf (they do aviation stuff). The stock H3 system does not, the bends are improved standard crimp.  In reality, with an I5 is this the be all end all, ....probably not.  With the Alpha a bit smoother flow would make more of a difference IMO.
