Sorry buddy my rig does not have a glasspack and plus I have to make a new video because a few weeks ago I redid my exhaust 2-1/2" from collector back and dumps at the magnaflow muffler so now my new exhaust system is deeper and louder with no glopyness

Magnaflow is high and raspy imo way too "ricerish" for me.

None of the videos I've watched with a magnaflow sound anything like a Honda.

They're more tame than a FM but still throaty and deep. Just not as aggressive. better IMO.

Look up the thread named muffler on modified cherokee tech the last post is video of my magnaflow set up. It sounds nothing like a Honda. I'm told by friends while leaving the trails it sounds similar to a 12v cummins with exhaust . If I was not on my phone i would post a link I also have links in Mud frogs thread in the vendor section and in my build thread

I just put on a 2.5" spun cat, flowmaster 44 and a 2.5" tailpipe and its hanging lower than I would like. Anyone else have low hanging exhaust or fix a problem like this?

Literally a couple pages back. Exact issues. Fixed by removing a section of pipe. Go look back and PM the guy.

Me and Tom95yj are literally bringing nifes to gun fights where never going to talk sense into these people that the magnaflow sounds better on a 4.0 than flowmaster
