Buy a catback or just muffler?

Hey I am getting tired of how quiet my car is and I want some more intimidation factor. Would it be worth it just to throw a Magnaflow muffler on or buy a whole catback? How much h.p. do you think I would get. I am wondering if I am choking my car with all the stock system. I have the slp longtubes and ORY now. #'s in sig
Thanks guys!

I just gotta find somewhere to put the cut out I guess. Ground clearence is already a huge issue with the SLP's. I want to put one in adventually but am looking for a good tone for now. If I can get a daily driver I am gonna make the car scare babies

you can turn it out to the side a bit. In fact that's what you're supposed to do anyways.

You should be ok if you dont go with the electric cutout, but you have to roll the cutout down so it protects the motor for the electric flange and it sits low as hell.

It sounds good though. Good luck.
