Its all your choice now. Performance gains between just about every catback will be similar.

1. That is made for W-bodies.

2. It is made by GM.

You don't want any after market parts from the manufacturer. They are overpriced and the after market companies make somewhat better products.

I understand that, thats why im not necessarily looking at it performance wise, i know all the catback kits are generally the same. thats why i need alot of input on sound and how long they last and who the majority would go with.

eh i cant tell, didnt you read the original post =p i watched some videos, i really want to say magnaflow but from what ive watched they just sound terrible. flowmaster sounds good except for when you get up there. and i read another review saying it gets 10 times worse with age. so maybe magnaflow is built with better quality and will keep its sound longer? idk THATS WHAT IM LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO TELL ME hahaha no ones really getting into depth with their experience with them =p im looking for details people DETAILS haha thank you.

The quality will be similar. The sound changes as the fiberglass packing settles a bit. I've had my Magnaflow for 2 years now, still sounds good to me. Both systems have been very successful and niether will disappoint, just pick one.
