As part of th<\/em>e 15th Anniversary celebration, The Burnout is sitting down with some of our partners who have contributed to the\u00a02014 RacingJunk.com\/AED Performance Chevrolet Silverado<\/a>\u00a0giveaway to find out more about the company itself, and the product currently rocking the truck. \u00a0This time it’s with Kirsten Wright of MagnaFlow\u00a0<\/a>to talk about the exhaust system \u00a0they contributed, and the other great products they offer.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong> Can you give me a little background on\u00a0MagnaFlow? How was the company started? What is the focus?<\/p>\n

Kristen Wright: <\/b>MagnaFlow, with its legacy of performance, has been a global leader in high quality exhaust systems for over 30 years. Industry leading technology, design, fitment and manufacturing has made\u00a0MagnaFlow\u00a0the choice of Champions and performance enthusiasts worldwide. Made in the USA, MagnaFlow\u00a0designs and manufactures a full line of high-quality, high-performance exhaust products for the automotive aftermarkets.<\/p>\n

Known for both innovation and extensive coverage,\u00a0MagnaFlow\u00a0delivers full systems, slip on mufflers and custom builder kits which exceed the demands of today\u2019s drivers. With unmatched style, sound, performance and quality,\u00a0MagnaFlow\u00a0has been become the exhaust system of choice for many Master Builders and Champion racers such as Mario Andretti, Chip Foose, “Grave Digger’s” Dennis Anderson, Arlen Ness and Vaughn Gittin Jr. Quality, power and sound is what it\u2019s all about atMagnaFlow.<\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong>\u00a0Tell me about the exhaust system on the Silverado. Why this version? What are some other options for similar vehicles and what are the benefits of each?<\/div>\n

Kristen Wright:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>The exhaust for the Silverado is designed to give truck owners exactly what they need in an aftermarket exhaust system: more power (dyno proven increases in horsepower and torque), quality (our stainless steel performance exhaust systems come with a lifetime warranty) and sound (the Silverado system will increase that deep, powerful rumble and turn heads wherever you go)<\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong>\u00a0What’s the benefit of a custom exhaust over stock? Can you tell me anything about installation or longevity? What does it allow the Silverado to do that it couldn’t do before, and why would you put one on other vehicles?<\/div>\n

Kristen Wright:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>An aftermarket exhaust is designed to improve performance, by opening up the flow of the exhaust system.\u00a0MagnaFlow\u00a0is at the top of the field in technology and our research and development team is hard at work to make sure that our systems all deliver a solid improvement over a stock system. You will see an increase in horsepower and in some cases, MPG as well. If you\u2019re towing \u2013 the added torque is a great benefit too.<\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 Are there any potential mechanical issues to be aware of with this exhaust that a stock vehicle wouldn’t experience?<\/p>\n

Kristen Wright:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>An aftermarket exhaust should not cause any issues in a vehicle if it is installed properly and the right exhaust is used on the right vehicle.<\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0What other\u00a0MagnaFlow\u00a0products or variations of this product would you recommend for our audience – either for their performance vehicles, their haulers, trucks, daily drivers, etc.<\/p>\n

Kristen Wright:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>MagnaFlow\u00a0offers aftermarket exhausts for all types of vehicles \u2013 from trucks like the Silverado to American Muscle, European and Sport Compact cars. We are dedicated to the automotive industry and to leading the way in research and development.<\/p>\n

The Burnout:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0What else would you like our readers to know about\u00a0MagnaFlow?<\/p>\n

Kristen Wright:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>We love our fans \u2013 and this industry. The passion for cars and trucks runs deep in this company!<\/p>\n
