Hey FJetters,
I need your help! I’m trying to figure out what exhaust system to get but I hardly know a thing about them. A fellow jetter is willing to hook me up with to me seems like a great deal but I wanted to get your opinion on what’s the greatest? What’s a good name brand? Please post your pics. if you got them. Stuff like that, anything is better than nothing and unfortunately that’s what I know. Thanks,

Its a magnaflow catback, great sound, great price. $350 from www.focus-central.com. Its an all stainless steel exhaust, with a 3.5" polished tip. It sounds awesome.

I have had my MBRP on for about 2-3 weeks now and I love it. Check out McNew's for a great price on it!

I just ordered a TruBendz(YoDude) 2.25" stainless with a Magnaflow muffler for $285; $310 shipped.

Was the least expensive all stainless I could find and the quality is supposed to be excellent.

Hope to have it next week

If youve been following the forum here you will see that there is currently an exhaust shootout about to take place. The test will compair dyno #'s and sound clips. Most major brands are slated for the test. I would wait a bit till the truth be known!

I have the Focussport stealth exhaust system, awesome sound, it's a lil over your price range.... or not.... And the TIP fits like a glove, doesn't stick ou too much like on most Foci exhaust systems... And u don't have to buy the "stealth" system, the only add a big magnaflow resonator.

I have the Yo Dude 2.25" with Magnaflow muffler, resonator and their standard tip. It fits great, sounds nice-low tone and not to loud and seemed to ad some power. Very happy with it.

Alright FJetters,
I need your help once again. I went to a local exhaust shop to finally get a magnaflow exhaust system put on the Focus and he told me-that would be a bad move. No performance, fairly noisy, and cheap compared to what I could do. You think there's any fact behind this or is this fiction? Keep in mind; I hardly know a thing about exhausts so go easy on me. Thanks,

Wow...this thread is back huh? Check out the new exhaust shootout. That'll give you an idea of what to buy. I'd also tell you to consider the apex'i WS...but the FocusSport Stealth is a good option too. If you're looking for cheap though, magnaflow is about the best of the bottom of the barrel.
