Does the Magnaflow system free up any horsepower? If so, how much?

I hope you're kidding... The factory exhaust is VERY efficient, but not as loud as most people would like. That is the ONLY difference in upgrading the exhaust. No measurable HP or TQ gains...

I didn't but my Magnaflow for the HP, I knew it wouldnt "free up" or make any additional. I bought it for the sweet looks, easy cleaninig of the tips, and beautiful note it makes on startup, WOT, and slow-downs....

Maxpower, No I am not kidding, I saw the dyno run on a 02'
Lightning. Also in the new Magnaflow 2003 catalog on
page 44 there is a graph that shows 16.6 Horsepower
and 13.1 Ft-Lb of torque.These are documented and
repeatable results. I spoke to the head eng. and he
said they tried several designs,but the #15714 has
an internal X-Pipe that enabled it to make more power
than the OEM unit. Larry

The system is 100% SS I believe. They cost around 350 but I have seen a classifieds over on NLOC with a guy selling them for 310 + shipping.
