catback magnaflow vs axleback nameless
 
Hello there! I wonder what would be your choice. Magnaflow catback or axleback nameless .... or combined axleback nameles + hig flow cat.
Seeking an improvement in car sound and weight savings. If there is also increased performance, better lol.
Thank you very much!

For the money, I really enjoy the Magnaflow. Great sound, great looking exhaust tips. Only downside is that the pipes are not the highest level stainless (SUS 302?). Still, if the vehicle is not exposed to snow in Spain you can't go wrong. My vehicle is stored during Canadian winters.

thanks for your reply;). Have you had the opportunity to hear both systems? or know someone who did, to know your opinion?
I see that you have Magnaflow .... is perceptible change from the original exhaust sound? Sounds like a real sports car? tell me your experience;)

The Magnaflow has the level of sound that the car should have had stock, in my opinion. No drone at cruising either. The tips look great, no too ridiculous like some aftermarket options. Great value.

I've had a Nameless axelback 2.5in on for the last ~7 months. Great sound throughout most of the rev range, no drone whatsoever. Butt dyno says the power curve is a little smoother, but I doubt that'd hold up to a real dyno.

Highly recommend for a daily driver

pepe 08-24-2014 12:41 PM

That means that the power curve is smoother? loses power at low rpm? you have just the axleback or mod some more?
I am not a daily driver .... I am driver weekend :)
you've changed it for another exhaust?

I've had a Nameless Axleback with a HFC and the sound was absolutely delightful. The HFC added a deeper growl without being obnoxious. The tips on the axleback aren't huge so be prepared for that also

pepe 08-24-2014 01:54 PM

ok !. On the exhaust tips .... I love my home toyota tips. The nameless are smaller than the original toyota?
Excuse the interrogation! :)
You say you had ....... that means you no longer have? and what you have now?
About the HFC .... it's better with or without helmholtz resonator?

Which HFC did you have?
