A car's exhaust system plays a major role in controlling the hot gases exiting the motor. Like a musical instrument in the hands of a master musician, systems are tuned to the characteristics of a particular engine. Two of the most popular manufacturers are Flowmaster and Magnaflow. Both brands started in California and are similar to one another in their pursuit of higher flow, better durability and amazing performance tone. But each relies on completely different approaches to achieve the same results.
Flowmaster Exhaust Systems
The Benefits of a Flowmaster Exhaust System
Flowmaster is legendary among hotrod purists and muscle car maniacs for rugged construction and powerful, race-inspired tones. Homegrown with pride, Flowmaster exhaust systems are made right here in the United States from mandrel bent, aluminized or stainless steel tubing. Their Flowmaster American Thunder exhausts and the Flowmaster Force II system use battle-tested chambered mufflers to maximize, you guessed it...the flow.
Removing the racket, highly engineered baffles cancel excessive noise by bouncing sound waves into each other. As if that's not enough, an area of low pressure is created inside of the muffler to scavenge more exhaust from the cylinders. What does this mean to you? It's locomotive power that doesn't anger the neighbors while they make breakfast. What's more, each muffler has staying power to match. With no packing to blow out over time, that amazing performance sound lasts the life of your vehicle. Best of all, each kit is custom made for an easy installation.
Magnaflow Exhaust Systems
The Benefits of a Magnaflow Exhaust System
Magnaflow is quickly becoming the system of choice for a smooth, aggressive rumble and low interior resonance. Quality, power and great sound are the objectives and Magnaflow has accomplished the mission with their exhaust systems. Proving that the underside of your car can look great too, most Magnaflow cat-back systems are composed entirely of stainless steel, with polished muffler cases. And don't worry—there is plenty of zing to match the bling.
Straight to the point, Magnaflow mufflers feature a straight-through design for unimpeded exhaust flow through perforated tubing. Keeping their reputation untarnished even on the inside, each muffler is packed with stainless steel wool, far outlasting the fiberglass used to pack lesser mufflers. Magnaflow exhaust systems also magnify flow with mandrel bent tubing, further increasing horsepower and torque. Only have a driveway to work with? No problem! Magnaflow kits bolt up in a snap with stainless steel hardware and no modifications using the factory exhaust hanger.
What's the Right Performance Exhaust System for You?
When it comes to performance, Flowmaster and Magnaflow have really done their homework. With a ton of great features to add a heartbeat to your ride, both options are a huge upgrade over your factory exhaust system. Getting exhausted from trying to decide on which kit to choose?
