MagnaFlow Street Series Cat-Back Exhaust System Model 16888 Stainless

Description

Product Overview

The MagnaFlow Street Series Cat-Back Exhaust System (model 16888) is engineered for drivers who demand both sound and performance. Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel, each pipe is machined for optimal flow and durability, ensuring resistance to rust and heat fatigue over the life of the vehicle. The system replaces the factory exhaust from the catalytic converter back, providing a straight‑through design that reduces back‑pressure and improves exhaust scavenging. Dimensions measure 46 x 13.75 x 11.13 inches and the entire assembly weighs 38 pounds, making it a robust yet manageable upgrade. Included are stainless steel clamps, hangers, and all necessary hardware for a direct‑fit installation on a wide range of cars, trucks and vans.

This exhaust system is ideal for daily drivers, weekend track enthusiasts, and anyone looking to enhance the auditory presence of their vehicle. Whether cruising city streets, tackling highway passes, or hitting the drag strip, the Street Series delivers a throat‑filling growl that turns heads while providing a modest increase in horsepower and torque. The stainless steel construction tolerates harsh weather, road salt, and high‑temperature environments, making it suitable for all climates and driving conditions. Installation requires basic hand tools and can be completed in a typical garage setting, allowing owners to enjoy the upgrade without professional assistance.
