And what kind of tips does magnaflow sell, that look close to stock? I'd appreciate any help, thanks. Brian 1998 Contour SVT Born:5/22/97 Build #1199 "It's got mods...and it's black"

If you're after power, the stock mufflers might not be the most restrictive part of your system.

The rear mufflers should be replaced with Magnaflow part number #11124 The mufflers give a nice deep tone though they can be a bit "boomy" if you have no cats. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

I installed the BAT y-pipe with a high flow cat and a magnaflow 10425 high flow resinator. I wanted to replace the 2 mufflers in the back with Magnaflows. That part number you gave me allows for what kind of tips? Can i match a set of Magnaflow tips out that back that don't look like fart cannons? What do you recommend?

DemonSVT, What is your recommendation for a 3L modded SVT that already has MSDS headers and Y-pipe, but stock from there back? Minimum noise for a daily driver. Current plan: Take cat out, and go 2.75" to Maganaflow straight resonator. Stock from there back.
