Interested in a Magnaflow cat-back kit???

[cheetah2390]

I contacted Magnaflow to see if they would produce a cat-back exhaust system for they Vehicross. Here is the reply I got "Fill out the information and if engineering needs a vehicle to prototype an exhaust they will reach out to someone. The more people who fill out that application will show how many customers are out there interested in an exhaust." here is the link to the application http://www.magnaflow.com/10projectvehicle/prototype.asp so please everyone, fill this form out!
Thank you!

It's a very simple application, please fill it out to help show interest in a exhaust kit

Any idea on cost?

You should be able to go to a custom exhaust shop and have them build you a cat back with your choice of muffler. That's what I did. I got a Magnaflow single in single out, exiting in the stock location for about 200 to 250 bucks if I remember right.

Right, but this way you can buy the kit and do the job yourself. I've purchased a few magnaflow cat-back systems for my other vehicles, and they make great products. They generally range in price from $300-$750 depending on the application. They won't produce one for the VX if there isn't enough interest, so fill out the form/application (takes 1 minute)!

Bump
Keep filling out the form/application VXers!

Single or dual exhaust?

If you look in the muffler video thread, at least one Magnaflow setup seemed to be in there. Don't know how custom it was/is though.

Seems like the thread owner is RickShaw IIRC.

Good to know. Borla wasn't interested at all when I contacted them.

the application says its free but you are signing a contract saying you will find a way to get your vx to california and leave it there for 5 days

Nic from Magnaflow "Fill out the information and if engineering needs a vehicle to prototype an exhaust they will reach out to someone. The more people who fill out that application will show how many customers are out there interested in an exhaust."

I'm sure they would ask the closest person to bring their vehicle in. Plus you would get a free exhaust

You should be able to go to a custom exhaust shop ... I got a Magnaflow single in single out, exiting in the stock location for about 200 to 250 bucks if I remember right.

Right, but this way you can buy the kit and do the job yourself. ... They generally range in price from $300-$750 depending on the application.

So tell me again what the advantage is?

I still don't understand the desire... I don't want to sound negative so please don't read this that way. It just seems as though this is more expensive than getting an exhaust shop to custom build your own exhaust and use whatever muffler you want. What does it gain you besides expense?

The price I gave is just a guess, I have no idea what the price will be. A dual exhaust system would be awesome. I'm sure they will make a couple options (if they actually decide to produce a system). For VXers with a stock exhaust it would a nice upgrade. They sound good (on the vehicles I've heard with them), look good, are 100% stainless steel, and dyno tested. It's just another option……

I like Magnaflow's products and they do sound good, the only real benefit to a pre built exhaust would be us being able to install on our own, but if the price isnt any better than an exhaust shop building it and using a magnaflow muffler then there's no point. Are they also going to attempt to fit any type of tubular header and mid pipe? I would be VERY interested in that! A full system would be great!

I'm guessing mid-pipe but that is all up to the engineers at Magnaflow.
