On a real note, headers are high on my list of things to get. Just going through a move from house to house right now so going to hold off for a while.

I have scanned through 114 pages of exhaust on here and got overwhelmed with all the different configurations and information. Can some one, that is happy with their set up help me out? I want to go with duals out the back, no drone, medium/deep rumble but not super loud. Just want her to sound good.

All depends on what you want to spend. Are you going custom or buying a catback?

I love my magnaflow setup. I have 14" now, but had 18" before. I think the 18 is what your looking for. Here's two videos I made for comparison.

I really like your setup with the 14"in the video, I just did the muffler delete and cant really tell that much of a difference ,did you have the muffler

delete before that ? If so how does the magnaflow compare ?

I just put an 18" Magnaflow on mine and while I love the sound the V4 drone is quite annoying. This isn't limited to Magnaflow but pretty much all aftermarket exhausts that get rid of the adaptive valve. Just keep in mind that you may want something to disable V4 mode if you get an aftermarket exhaust.

I never had just a muffler delete. I had the 18" first then switched it to the 14", so I really can't comment on how the muffler delete compares to the magnaflow. I have heard several muffler deletes on youtube when I was in my search with what muffler I wanted. In my opinion it didn't really do it for me. I have not one regret with the setup I have now.

 

I will say if you just deleted the muffler and left flapper and resonator, there will not be much change. If you remove both of those, it will sound better.

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
