Louder? Magnaflow or Hooker muffler

The hooker is more mellow and refined compared to the MAgnaFlow IMO. It is also more quiet at idle and part throttle, but just as loud at WOT. For me, it is the best catback.

Im not a fan of the hooker, it just doesnt do it for me.. Kinda tame..
I dont like when i can hear the road noise or T/A "squeeks" over a muffler.. and the hooker is one you can do that with.. but then again, In California. That could be a good thing.

I am in the same predicament, still looking for the exhaust I want.
I went with the magnaflow, and I'm pretty satisfied.. it sounds plenty loud WOT and has a nice idle.
magnaflow is definately louder than hooker.. every clip I've heard.

Are hooker & magnaflow louder than corsa? I've only heard corsa in person and it was barely louder than stock. My definition of barely may be different than yours though because I consider my longtubes, no cats, and GMMG to be almost really loud. I may have the GMMG up for sale soon since I've had it for 5 years and want to be a little louder now!
