Magnaflow catback - Where is the best price?

QUIKAG · January 22, 2004

I have an extended cab/short box '04 5.3L truck and I want the new side exit Magnaflow exhaust.

I can barely find them on the internet and when I do, they $400+.

Any idea on where to get the best deal?

Most of the local muffler shops (at least around here) will install them w/custom bent pipe (or pipes) for $150 out the door.

I'm talking specifically about the cat-back that can be purchased online and bolted onto the truck.

I got mine from www.tbyrnemotorsports.com... Exhaust are 10% off right now from them too so you could get one to your door for less than 400.. They have great customer service as well..

Has anybody installed the Magnaflow with the duals out the back. If so, what do you think?

Ive heard that the cheapest price was from full line exhaust www.fle-online.com I ordered mine from Tbyrne and it took 2.5 weeks to get here, the other place supposedly stocks it and has a lower price.

I got mine from fle-online and they shipped immediately and offered a better price than Tbyrne. Great customer service and I'm loving the Magnaflow side exit cat-back so far.

And here comes the dreaded question. Resonance, is there any resonance? How does the interior resonance and interior noise compare to the OEM for both the side exit and dual rear exit?

Also, for the dual rear exit.., are you able to keep your spare tire mounted?

on a different forum we came across performancepeddler. go to ebay and look up his store, all of his info is there. his price shipped for an 04,stainless, short bed, 5.3, dual out the back, was 385.00. the rep we all used was brad (248-399-7600).pm me if you are interested and i can tell you the web site to use as a reference to get an additional $10.00 off.

There is zero resonance, but a bit of drone around 2,000rpm. It's not obnoxious, but it's there. Of course, my stock exhaust had a bit of drone around that rpm as well, so I'm not surprised, just engine harmonics, I guess.

Now, my Magnaflow side exit catback is NOT quiet. I was expecting it to be a bit quieter, but it definitely rumbles. It's not overly loud, but it's not a quiet aftermarket exhaust.

I love it.

Try Performance Peddler on Ebay. See link below. Just because he does not have it in stock, does not mean that he cannot get it. I have heard nothing but things out of him though I have not purchased anything from him.

Performance Peddler

He will get the item that you need drop shipped straight from Magnaflow.
