Had the pacesetter exhaust and junked it for the Racing Beat. Spend your money wisely and buy the Racing Beat exhaust. It may cost a little more but you only will do it once versus many times with the pacesetter exhaust. Plus the pacesetter is LOUD, pulled over a lot with that exhaust. Unless you have money to waste ( like someone elses ), spend a little more now.

i had just the muffler on my car, and it wasnt too loud, but it didnt sound very good, and i blew the side of the muffler out with a backfire. so if you need to just get by now, i would get a turbo muffler from autozone, and save for a custom magnaflow exhaust, or the racing beat, which i thnk is over hyped.

Hey Onlyonthurs, you should try and get a sound clip or a video of your magnaflow, ever since I first saw it I've been wondering how the hell that monster sounds LOL

I went the cheap way with the pacesetter and the monza big bore exhaust.. after i ordered it from JCW i read a few threads of how crappy it was. I tried to cancel the order after that, and they said it was already in transit. So i have the pacesetter full exhaust on with a cherry bomb glasspack modified from autozone.. Its load when ya give it some gas. i do have more power with the free flow. It has a slight metalic sound.. i might get the RB exhaust in future.. i have a 85gsl 55k original miles, automatic..its not as fast as many of your 7's, so ill do a little hear and there with it. prep'n it for paint for now.. one thing that has me stumped is what to do with the wheels.. tirerack has the only set of 4x110 pattern i can find..and tried to email CPracing for adapters and i get return email. They prob shut down.
