Wink Custom Magnaflow on i4 Sedan :) wha???

Alright guys so just went this morning to install my magnaflow exhaust.

P/N 14832 -

If any sedan person wants to do this I recommend getting P/N 14829 b/c the tip is a lot longer and it will be a little more flush. I was going to do it but it would have cost me an extra $50 so I didn't.

first impressions: love the sound, not too much below 3.5K but once you floor it, it sounds BEASTLY. It doesn't sound farty as well - I will post a video later on.

Driving on the freeway with windows up you can definitely hear the rumble; it has a little drone to it but not bad.

Install:



Does this make my butt look big? haha





I didn't like the chrome too much b/c it doesn't really flow with a family sedan so I painted it black. The chrome would look MUCH better if I went duals.






Edit: Here is the video. There is some whining when I barely press the accelerater but the video makes it sound bad when in reality it isn't
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKrg6bfFa7s

and here is a better pic of how the exhaust looks painted black


**I'm not into too much sound so I need to find a way to further silence this thing. Any suggestions would be good

Will most likely get the prokit next. MAYBE MAYBE H&Rs..... and alpine will get installed nxt month

Anyway go ahead and comment;; + or - don't matter. Just help me silence this thing more! Its not loud just its a little loud for my liking

Looks good! Any reason you didnt go with duals? I didnt see a rear bumper cutout maybe??? But that could have been taken care of rather easily.

thanks woody! I'm trying to keep it low profile-I would have gone duals but for sure my mom would have found out

but it would look sick if I did. Yeah the sedans don't have a cut out.

thanks, yeah the chrome was nice but doesn't really match a family sedan, let alone a single exhaust. if I did dual I would have left it

If you notice in the first picture the exhaust backing is chrome (mirror) finish and in the last pic its black.
