Looking at exhaust for the car.

Has anybody used this exhaust? If you have, did it get a little deeper with some age? http://www.hhraccessory.com/product/...t/Default.aspx Play the video and tell me what you think. Thanks.

Sounds good.

I'm not sure, how does it compare to the MagnaFlow?

3.5" vs 4"


I know I want a new exhaust in a bad way.

I listened on you tube to Magna Flow in two different videos. On one it was tinny, the other sounded deeper. There's one of a blue HHR that has Borla. Now that's a positive sound! Price tag for this is about $800. Anybody else with a good (deep) sound ? I've only saw systems up to 3", nothing larger.

I bought my Magnaflow catback with 4" stainless tip (#16655 - 2006-2009 Chevrolet HHR 2.2L 2.4L Rear Exit) for $388 shipped from planetmagnaflow.com . When you pick the exhaust you want, they have an option of making them an offer and you can get the system for a lower price. I made an offer of $300, and they came back and said $388 free shipping. They send you an email almost instantly with their offer back. I'm not promoting their site, just trying to save fellow HHR owners some money.
