Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
Very cool Brian. Red Alert is bad!! As far as the exhaust, go a little bigger now and you won't regret it later.
i agree completely with this... thats why i went to dual 3 inch right now which may be a little overkill for my motor right now but will be perfect with the new set up i am going to build
I did not follow the build up or the removal and what not..
for some reason you tube was dragging badly I could only get two of them to load up and play

Honestly, folks, here's my thought. The 2.5" with a crossover won't stifle the exhuast as much as people think and on the street, they will be a little more "tame". Cops LOVE loud and fast looking (let's be honest, red alert says "kill", just sitting there), anyway, if you're running the cutouts, when you're ready to get crazy mean out there, you can open them and the gates of hell breathe.
When you're just driving to a meet, or just cruising, let it look evil, without the note that tells the red & blue to "please bust me, I'm not doing anything now, but if you take away a month's worth of gas now, you've stopped me".
When you're in a heat, let it be evil. Take it from someone who's donated WAY more than his share to municipalities in the past (hell, I probably paid for their new cruisers, but anyway...). Sorry for the confusion. Just throwing a thought to consider. I love the way the car turned out and don't want to see you get hassled everywhere you take it.

You may be confused Brian's car has long tube headers to a 3" Y pipe to a single 2.5" intermediate pipe cat back system.
he has a cutout welded to the intermediate pipe but when closed the system is quite restrictive given the mods on the car.

I still do not understand how that thing is so quiet.
My car was as loud without the cutout as yours is with one open...weird.
Magnaflow is one of the quietest if not the quietest catback used on 4th Gen fbodys. I think the fact that it is only 2.5in has less to do with the volume than the Magnaflow muffler.
If he put a chambered system like GMMG on his car you would be wondering how it wasn't any louder with the cutout open.
Yeah it's nice but for the price they better have a hot sales girl come and dance for me amongst other things.
