Just muffler replacement?

[TexasSpeed]

I've read a number of posts about the Magnaflow cat-back kit... I was just wondering, has anyone tried replacing "just" the mufflers with flowmasters or some other muffler brand?

Is there something special about the whole cat-back kit? I had a Mustang GT a few years ago, I replaced the stock mufflers with flowmasters, everything was fine.

Thanks.

polished stainless, larger diameter, smoother transitions, more than likely lighter weight, a nice increase in power, and if paired with a downpipe will make even more sense. i have the magnaflow on my speed six, got it for a steal, $390 bucks, fits like a glove, doesn't burn the plastic on the bumper as so many may claim, and sounds real discrete. don't know what else I can tell you. check out my post on it.

Yes, it looks nice... but did you notice a significant power gain?

Where did you find it for that price?

Any "CUSTOM" muffler shop can do just about any find of exhaust set up you would like.

Theres no way you will ever notice a significant power gain from just a catback.
