Hooker is really quiet when you're off the throttle or cruising, but wakes up when you're on the gas. Sounds very deep and mean, flows well and is very reasonably priced. The only way I wouldn't go with it is if you had to go stainless steel then go magnaflow. Otherwise Hooker all the way!

DING DING DING! Somebody's got one! It's an awesome setup.

I like my setup, good flow, stock look (if you leave the tip), and a deep, clean, rasp free tone. It's my current setup in my sig. May go true duals one day but I am really happy with it - though I confess I am curious about the Magnaflow system, their sound suits my tastes and with cats may sound REALLY nice.
