SLP PowerFlo, here is my thread with pics and a video. I like the D/D look and I have since tucked the tips up a little better, it was my first exhaust install.

Anything besides a stock cat-back will be an improvement in sound and power.

i had borla on my car when i bought it with adjustable, open pipe. absolutely awesome sounding. nice and deep, no rasp or drone. had just a little more noise at idle but was very reasonable driving around.
open it up past 3500 and it really let go

Magnaflow. Very quiet when just driving normally. When just cruising or driving around town it has a very nice refined yet aggressive tone to it. But open up past 3k rpms and it starts to scream.

Anywhere around 5-10rwhp is pretty much the norm
