Default Cherry Bomb Glass Pack Video

Everyone has the question of Cherrybomb glass pack VS. the Magna Flow super 40.

Well I do not have a video of the Magna flow. But i can provide a video of the Glass pack.

The first half is with the camera in the rear with the hatch open-reached a top speed of 65.

the second half is with the camera in the back seat-hatched closed, reached top speed of 65.

(ignore the creaking-i need to replace bushings...)

Hope this helps someone out.

stock down tube
magna flow Hi-Flow 2.5" cat
2.5" connector piece with a bung

I really like the sound. May have to get one down the road. Although the sound of your swampers make a really cool exhaust sound too

i just cut my old muffler off (inlet on it was rusted out where it met the muffler) and just straight piped it, sounds about the same, perhaps a little more drone

A renix doesnt sound as cool, I had mine straight piped and I liked the sound in the cab, but outside it sounded like crap (had my girlfriend drive it). Got the super turbo and now its too quiet and im not gonna waste another 30 bucks on a new muffler.

The HOs sound like a cummins.

Your exhaust sounds excellent man

Heres what mine sounds like...
I had some friends riding with me too, because they love the sound of my XJ.
You'll notice some of their sound effect

Really? I have a thrush turbo and it definately doesnt sound that nice. It has a full tailpipe too though.
Ive only had it for a couple weeks (maybe a month?).. I wonder if it will sound better over time.

I got a thrush welder. I've heard it is basically a flowmaster's 40 series knock off. For 36$ it sounds nice. I dont have a thrush turbo but i am very pleased with mine! Nice sound, not obnoxious and a very meaty sound. Just my 02, figured id throw it in.
