Default Magnaflow Catback Delay?

I ordered my cb through a retailer over two weeks ago. Magnaflow told him it would be one to two weeks. Now my retailer said he spoke with MF and they said they do not have any in stock themselves... they have to build them... and it will be another week "or so".

Anyone else have a similar wait?

Is there another option (catback) that sounds deep, and does not hang too low? (I have H&R Sport springs that are 1.3/1.4" drops.)

Thanks!

Spunds to me like your retailer is screwing you around! Here is the number to Magnaflow 800.824.8664. Call them and get yourself informed.
I have the Magnaflow system on my TC. I love it but am worried to add a header in fear of the "raspy" sound. Do you have a header?

They are on back order. It took about 6 weeks to get mine. I ordered it around the 1st of feb. and just got it last week.

Thanks scion_south.... do you have it in/on? Was it worth it?

My guy can probably do a HKS (for even a bit less), but have a friend who has a Magnaflow on two of his cars... and they do sound awesome.

Thanks again... it has only been about three weeks for me now.... If I am going to cancel, now would be the time.

You got an exhaust put on Jonathan? I'll have to come by and check it out. I should be getting my midpipe and some Kumho Ecsta's being put on today.

Hopefully your exhaust will be shipped out here soon tCtuner.

I've got the exhaust and a lip spoiler sitting here, but they are not on the car just yet. I paid $395 free shipping. One of my Toyota Techs is going to put them both one for a 6 pack.

Kytc. I can't wait to hear yours with the mid-pipe. Are you getting a resonator also?

Sounds like you got a deal. The ZPI midpipe is catless and doesn't have any resonators but I'm getting two 14" welded in to it. My gf's dad is putting the tires on and welding up the exhaust and putting it on for free

Nope, no header. I'm autoxing in H-Stock this year so I can't do to much to the car without bumping it to another class.
