"Jegs" Brand Cat Back, any good?
I found this while searching, for the price it seems pretty nice, anyone ever buy it and install it on a stock car?

That Jeg's description says it uses a "turbo" muffler which isn't bad, but that's oldschool technology. I wonder how it sounds and performs. I remember the dynomax superturbos sounding pretty cool, but I've only ever heard them on a 5.0.

I'd get the hooker as it is cheap (I think that I paid $275 for mine), it flows well, and it sounds good with long tube headers. I would bet that since you want an exhaust...you will also want headers down the road. Good luck with your decision.

Probably VERY similar to the newer style dynomax ultraflow street mufflers.
FWIW a turbo sounds very similar to a stock muffler. Except it has an airy whistley sound when you get into the throttle. I have a dynomax superturbo crossflow 2.5" in/out on my car to keep it quiet when the cutout is closed, bad thing is that it gives up some HP, probably very close to stock. This will soon be remedied with an slp dual/dual muffler though
