I've had mine on order through a different company for a few weeks. I called Magnaflow themselves and they said they have an order of 50 hitting the production floor today!
They also said something odd to me... They said that they only have 3 outstanding orders for this exhaust and they have ONLY sold 3 previously EVER!?!? WTF? I thought a bunch of people have this catback? Unless magnaflow changed the part number or something?

question I'm literally ordering this exhaust tomorrow but I just read that the front pipes are 2.25 inch piping are all the exhaust for our cars like this and will this be bad once I put on hfc's having the pipes go from 2.5(hfc) to 2.25(front pipes) to 2.5(the rest of the exhaust) maybe the bottle neck theory??

all I know is that they have been on backorder. I ordered mine september 3rd and still am waiting. Hottexhaust has been great though. They are always friendly when I call in for updates.

When I called last week they thought it would be shipping this week. BTW, the system is being drop shipped from Magnaflow, so there is definitely a shortage.

I called Magnaflow again yesterday and the production order for 50 units hit their production floor yesterday! They said it will be 2 weeks before they ship them out. The original production date was supposed to be like 2 weeks ago but it got pushed back twice!

ok so I'm I now know there's a wait for this exhaust which sucks but for the price you cant go wrong soo ill just have to wait it out... still though does anyone think that this combo with HFC's will be badd?? due to the size difference in the pipes

What size difference are we talking about.As far as i know my Magnaflow is 2.5 " all the way back to 4" tips.Even if it were smaller they get decent gains with stock exhaust which is 1.75" at converters. I beleive Borla system is only 2.25" all the way.

Ya, it's sitting here in my apartment. I don't have any tools here in San Diego cause this is just my corporate apartment for work. I've been trying to get ahold of some local people to see if they could help me or find a place that has a lift I could use. Installing these systems is super easy, but I just don't have anything here.
