I just purchased a muffler from magnaflow #14815 and I'm about to have it installed. The shop quoted me $45 and said that it might cost more if I need extra piping. They have hangers, but they aren't stainless steel like the ones I see on the magnaflow site and when I asked about a custom cat-back, he had no idea what I was talking about. I asked if they had stainless steel piping but they only carry aluminized something or the other, from 2" to 3".
So, in spite of this, I have a few questions:
1. Is stainless steel the way to go? Is aluminum crappy and will it rust?
2. Is $45 for an installed muffler a good price and will having a stainless steel muffler with an aluminum hanger look ghetto or will I not even see the hanger?
3. Did any of you guys need any extra piping for your muffler because it was "too short" (that's what he said)?
4. What benefits would a 2.25" catback piping afford me? I see that's the consensus around here for I-4 5sfe engines. I have no other performance mods. Should I look into upgrading my piping?
I have a 2000 camry, 4-cyl. I'm planning to do this tomorrow so any quick advice I can get would be great. Thanks guys!
