MAPerformance Catback

[OptimuST Prime]

Hey guys, my 8 years old MBRP 3" catback broke down. Drone was Little bit too Much. I need another catback. I have an eye on the MAPerformance. I already have a 2jr full 3" catless downpipe.

Anyone have feedback about the MAP catback ?! I may can get it for 900$CAD shipped.



Thanks

Buy a Thermal R&D * Best exhaust out there. Many will vouch for this. Get it ceramic coated also it will help it keep its beauty along with dissipate heat.

I got the MAP from Woosh, and am reasonably happy. I wasn't looking for drone or soup can, so after (10-11K) I'm finally used to noise. I doubt any upgrade exhaust won't be similar. oh....and price point! Forgot to mention woosh catted down pipe, may have something to do with noise....

Call me crazy but I swear my exhaust is louder with the catted downpipe versus catless.

I dont have the experience, but I'll call you crazy anyway! I did read a comment regarding hangers - insulators. Instead of poly which distributes the vibration, use rubber - 'dampner'. Going to see if it will make a drone difference.

With a catless Downpipe and a non-resonated Catback like the Cobb, can we hear the turbo whistle at idle ?!

Not at idle but as soon as you build boost

Sounds like a solid experiment. Let us know!

I've been running the MAP exhaust with the stock DP since 2016. The one caveat is when it rains it drones a shit ton from 3100 to 3300 rpm. Just that tiny window. So I've gotten used to short shifting in the rain which isn't a bad thing anyway. Otherwise, I love the sound and get complements about all the time. It sounds raspy and deep at the same time somehow. And the low-speed parking lot burbles are delicious.

I work on my own car so I'm under it a few times a year and it's held up fine through 8 salty northeast winters. The tips are crusty and black as night tho! I gave up on cleaning them years ago lol Lmk if you want a pic

I Read a lot of feedbacks. I think imma pull the trigger on the Cobb ! Should sounds good with my catless Downpipe!!

You won’t regret it
