Magnaflow is installed!

I finally installed Magnaflow muffler and I love it!. It's very quiet if you keep light foot on the gas and has deeeep growl when you floor it. Even on the highway it's not intrusive at all.
I installed it at Quick muffler at Dufferin south of Lawrence-for $345 taxes included, job was done very quickly and accurately.
For those who live in Toronto, I very recommend this shop.

It seems that fuel economy went up even though I was flooring it this week just to enjoy sound. I do not have any exact numbers yet, but my fuel gauge usually is pessimistic. This time I got 370 km on half a tank-very unusual reading.

Can you tell me which Magnaflow muffler you went with? What size tip? How much did the muffler cost?

I'm also considering a Magnaflow, but I was a little concerned about sound. Don't want to sound like those lound *** Hondas driving around.

Can you take some pics of your new system? Id like to see some alternatives to the same muffler systems everyone is getting.

Alex, that link didn't work...yahoo error. Can you try it again or attach image?

Interested in seeing which muffler since I'm only a couple weeks away from buying mine.
