Hey guys, i was just wondering how comparable are the magnaflow straight-through ovals to the es tuning ovals? They look pretty similar in size and outer construction. So lets say, you ran a resonated b-pipe of the same size to a magnaflow oval, and then to the es oval. Which would provide better gains with all else the same? Right now i have a magnaflow on ITR piping and it sounds deep and pretty loud. Thanks guys.

 

My Magnaflow oval straight thru design muffler is good on performance and not raspy at all, but is too loud for me. I have a header, resonated testpipe, resonator in the b pipe, and a resonated tip coming out the rear after the muffler, still too loud for me. I will be switching to a hi-flow chambered muffler and a larger resonator down the road after I finish rebuilding the engine for performance.

 

They're pretty much the same damn thing. Only one says ES and one says Magnaflow. Being that the Magnaflow is about half the price, it's kind of dumb not to go with it.

 

By the way so there is no confusion, this is the magnaflow im talking about:


And the es muffler looks about the same.

 

Ya, mine looked the same except the inlet or outlet was offset, can't remember which.

I ordered a es oval muffler from kteller a while back, but got the magnaflow muffler you have posted. Because they are pretty much the same, I didn't care.

Yeah i bought mine from some guy and it is painted a flat black color, looks nice and sleeper, at night you cant even see the muffler. However it is kind of loud, not rice loud but a deep loud, what does yours sound like and what size piping, etc do you have?

 

is it like really loud?

 

i got the magnaflow oval and it sounds nice and deep

sound will be loud or quite depends what size resonator and cat you are using.

Yea mine looks exactly like that one in color and shape, however you can see less of mine because my 98+ bumper hides it more. Its not that loud just deep. Not high pitched at all, or tinny sounding.
