Let us know how it turns out when you get it installed. I have heard nothing but good things about the MAC system as far as sound quality goes.

Did you get the chrome tips? I did and they look horrible now. They began rusting after only a couple weeks on the car and I'm not too happy with MAC right about now.

i have the Mac catback in siting in the room next to mine...along with off road H and long tubes waiting for install when it gets warm....the cat back was a ***** to get in the house...its hard to hold onto

Right now I have a complete MAC exhaust on my car. Unequal shorties (rusted out worse than my originals) and they are 1 year old, off-road H-pipe that is in great shape and easy to install, and the cat-back with chrome tips that looks great and no rust at all. I guess it all depends on MAC's production for the day it was made.

I've seen some great MAC stuff last for years, and other that lasted for a month.. Either way, that catback sounds great, and just keep the tips clean, and you should be alright.

thanks for all your message. Any advice is welcome. I hope I'm luck with my product, it was a tough decision choosing either flows or Mac. The car is driven just in sunny days, and is really babied.
Keep writing!

You should be fine then. Mine is a daily driver and it saw a little snow this year =(

2FastLX-Call MAc they will glady replace your rusted tips, they are replacing mine.

I have had the full exhaust long tubes and H-pipe catback and all on for over a year and they fit and still look great. I did have my MAC headers ceramic coated inside and out though

I didn't have any problem with the install their system fits much better then my old Flowmaster American Thunder.
