Default Magnaflow

Has anyone put on the magnaflow muffler on their ISX50? My buddy put one on his 08 m3 and it sounds beautiful w/o resonator delete. If anyone does please post, thanks

hit up member combfilter. I think if you look at his master exhaust thread he has his car with this same set up. I agree this is the best sound for the Lexus!

Jon27...Did you have a full custom set up and is that SS or Aluminized Steel pipes?

I put Magnaflow mufflers on my 350 the day after I got my 2006 in June of 06. I love the sound and think it is perfect. No need to spend much more on a Tanabe or HKS cat back system. Works fine for me!

Yes it does, I noticed this when looking in the past. The mufflers and tips look identical to what Magnaflow offers. Maybe that is what he uses or the same MFG that Maganflow uses is the same that he does for his set up.

Nope.. Sorry guys, we do not use Magnaflow mufflers or tips.

Our mufflers are manufactured for us here in SoCal and we make our own tips in house.

I agree i would like to hear how it sounds too. I found on ebay the mufflers with the SS tips are 100bucks each and then a local muffler shop would install them for 50 bucks (Miami Muffler). IMO thats not bad..., thanks guys

lol...glad I said it looks the same. As many do. This is what they have had for some time and again only said it looks the same. Tip and muffler have the same design. I wasnt referring to the exhaust on this car pictured above. This style can come from one or several MFG just like all the different rim MFG with the same style rims. Some have the same quality whiles others dont of course.

Sigh.. Mike did you read my post?...
I pretty much informed you & responded that we do not use any of there parts or same mfg's...
They may "look" the same but what muffler/tip doesn't?

- WE MAKE THE TIPS OURSELVES...

That means we do our own Manufacturing from scratch, with 3" & 4" 304 SS pipes, swedge them together, then weld them, then polish them and then weld them to our mufflers...

Thank You Again..
