Default Exhaust opinion

So I've had a Borla catback, and a stock catback with E-cutout on my car. I wasn't very happy with either.

For my next setup I am looking at 2 options:

1. Hooker catback with E-cutout

2. True duals

I had my mind set on true duals, but I couldnt find any on here used and I can get the catback for almost half the price

Any opinions?


Thanks in advance

Can't go wrong with either Hooker or Magnaflow, they both sound great.
