Default Exhaust question

right now i have the setup stated below. my friend is selling his true duals for $100. is it worth it to buy the true duals and switch it over? plus what could you guys tell me as far as sound quality and loudness, cuz im not really doing it for performance gains.

100 bucks for TD's is a great deal. are they custom? if so check to see the quality of the welds and bends. how did they fit on his car? the sound depends on the muffler on there. are they dumped before the axle?

If it's the Texas Speed True Duals setup, it's going to be a LOT louder than stock, and much louder than what you have on there now. The mufflers are bullets so basically you are running and dumping straight pipes off the collectors (!).
