hotrodthom -> magnaflow install (3/17/2007 2:22:31 PM)

just finished installation of magnaflows stainless dual out catback on my '07 h3. fairly simple install,as it took me just under 2 hours on my garage floor! i was able to remove the old exhaust in one piece so that helped alot. have to say i am very impressed with magnaflow's quality and fit, very nice. sound is good, nice little rumble. inside noise barely changed. compliments my true flow intake/filter kit nicely. will upload pic when i can figure out how to alter size to fit. overall very happy, especially with price. $450 shipped to house. oh yeah, forgot to say the kit says its for the 3.5 motor '05-'06, but it fit on my '07 just fine!

Looks great!  What did you notice in performance difference with the new CAI and exhaust?

i can feel  a low end improvement. accellerates better from idle. wife noticed it also. i can also feel more power up top. i let a buddy of mine drive it, who happens to be a chevy mechanic, and he was impressed with the 3.7 power.

Hey Hotrod,
How's the sound inside the cab at 70 mph?

hotrodthom -> RE: magnaflow install (3/18/2007 1:40:16 PM)

not bad at all, very tolerable. i have had either duals, flowmasters, straight pipes or some form of custom exhaust on everything i've ever driven, and i would say this is one of the more mild ones. hope this helps.

Oh so nice! I am thinking about this Magnaflow and the Borla. I am just worried about in cabin droning! Sounds like your happy. Thanks for your input.  

HUMMER DRIVER -> RE: magnaflow install (3/18/2007 11:44:17 PM)

I've got the Magnaflow Catback arriving on Martch 20th!

Looking forward to the split exhaust, looks very sharp from the rear and should sound really nice. I've heard the Magnoflows aren't too load except when you really get your foot in it.

hotrodtom. any tips on installing the exhaust? I've never done any exhaust work before.

thanks,

Raymond

raymond,
start at the two studs by the convertor, work your way back. you will have 4 rubber mounts to pull free, can be a little stubborn. once exhaust is loose and hanging, jack up rear so the axle droops about 4-6" and you will be able to pull it out throught he back in one piece. just watch the hangers so they dont get caught on brake lines, vent tube, etc. it was kinda nice being able to slide under it on a creeper with all four tires on the ground. let us know when you have it done.
