Default Magnex COPY exhaust system

hi all i was looking into exhaist systems and found a magnex exhaust for my 2wd. Ive already got one fitted but apparently mine is a magnex copy, even though its designed by magnex!!

mine has 2 centre back boxes! Does this effect performance and also the noise from my exhaust??

cheers

Luke

depends on whats in the centre back boxes wouldnt it??

as in how much restrictions on the boxes that they have each, i would reckon that 2 boxes would slightly reduce power but not by much i think??

If it is a direct copy of the Magnex, then it will be more free-flowing than any other off the shelf item. This is because it is twin 2¼" system, which has flow properties of just over 3". Also, because there is no issue with getting baffles in this size, there are no size reductions in the exhaust, unlike some 3" systems, where the baffles are smaller than the 3" bore.
