Default Anyone with dynomax super turbo catback?

Im in search for an inexpensive catback that isn't obnoxiously loud (so no loudmouth). I have LTs and an ORY with the stock catback and a crappy flowmaster muffler welded in place of the stock muffler (bought it that way) and a cutout. I've pretty much narrowed it down to a hooker catback, but the dynomax catback (not the bullet style) looks like a nice quality setup, but I can't find anyone that has any sound clips or videos of it. So anyone got any videos or reviews of the system?
For reference:

Get the magnaflow catback for $290 shipped using the Amazon code from the post above. BEST deal around, stainless steel, beautiful tips, and is not obnoxious!

What post? $290 is a hell of a deal if its part # 16723 magnaflow with the dual tips, otherwise its the ugly truck style one... No thanks...
Regardless all the magnaflow sound clips I've heard are either extremely raspy or sound like an old truck with no muffler (does anyone have any good clips? ) Ideally I would like to have more of an exotic high pitched Corvette sound (like corsa for example) but I can't justify paying that for some pipes and a muffler, especially if Im going to cut them for the cutout anyway.

These hooker sounds clips sound great IMO (especially for under $400)

Yes. But when just cruising around it sounds like *** most of the time, very raspy, but great at WOT.
