Yea, even Magnaflow miter-cut the exhaust on the Fairlane and pieced it together. The problem is that the equipment to do 3-inch pipe is crazy expensive.

How do those Magnaflows sound? Quiet at idle and cruise?

In the interest of neihborly/spousal harmony I need/want an exhaust that is pretty darn quiet at idle cruise. I don't mind a howl that suggests the hounds of hell at WOT, but it needs to be pretty mellow under normal circumstances.

The Magnaflow catback that I have on my '95 T/A (cammed, !CAT, Jethot LT's) is mellow at idle and pretty loud WOT. The best thing is that I got rid of the interior 'drone' I had with my old Flowmaster setup I had.

Steve, the car is looking SICK!! Love that undercarraige shot and the rear tires/suspension is just a work of art!
I too was wondering why you didn't mandrel bend the exhast system but do understand that most shops can't mandrel bend 3".
Great job bud! Looks freaking amazing!
You will achieve that with Magnaflow and an x-pipe. However 3" pipe will be louder than 2.5" Originally Posted by Damn True

The other key to low noise/resonance is how thick the material is. In many cases the stainless tubing is pretty thin and this passes through a lot of noise and resonance. That is why we went with a coated steel. It was cheaper and very heavy gauge. Originally Posted by Rybar

I see you have a BG fuel cooler mounted under the rockers. I was going to put mine in the same spot.
Is that were you plan to keep it?
Does it hang low and stick out to much?

You can barely see it from the side of the car, fits perfect there. Originally Posted by thedugan
