There are really 3 classes of exhaust: True Duals, Loudmouth, all the other cat back systems with ton of different mufflers. If you want power it's TD, if you the best breathing loudest exhaust it's LM, if don't want door number 1 or 2, then you have a lot of listening and deciding to do. Click here to START.

[EDIT] seriously, GREAT_WHITE post some info on what you want or how agressive a sound, is power a priority over tone, etc. so people can lead you the right exhaust. Of course that's always the LM...

After much deliberation I went with a Stainless Works CB. It was on sale and I got it for $600 shipped. It's a 3.5" system, all stainless steel.

F*ck the catbacks and all the brand names that go with them...get some race style longtubes and run true duals like the ones TSP sells. People will hear you for miles at any rpm range. Best grand ever spent!

If you are just getting a cat-back then get Borla, because it sounds good by itself, loud though. If you are getting headers then get Magnaflow with cats. If you want performance then get Magnaflow but if you want to be noticed then get loudmoth with no cats, really loud!!

I've had a Corsa in the past, and have a Loudmouth on this car. The previous owner intalled it as I believe he worshipped SLP. The Loudmouth is obnoxious. The Corsa can be had for just over $600 shipped if you do your homework. Very nice mellow tone at idle and cruise, agressive at WOT. The Loudmouth sounds like flex-pipe duals made in autoshop.
