check out my link in my sig. i have a MBRP cat back. i love the sound, its a straight through muffler design for 400 bucks. warranty is great as well. Its not extremely loud but its loud at WOT. highly recommend it, sounds killer with LT's as well.

Best line from that link (for those of you who do not have time to read all of it):

"Some people operate under the misguided notion that wider pipes are more effective at clearing the combustion chamber than narrower pipes. It's not hard to see how this misconception is appealing - wider pipes have the capability to flow more than narrower pipes. So if they have the ability to flow more, why isn't "wider is better" a good rule of thumb for exhaust upgrading? In a word - VELOCITY. I'm sure that all of you have at one time used a garden hose w/o a spray nozzle on it. If you let the water just run unrestricted out of the house it flows at a rather slow rate. However, if you take your finger and cover part of the opening, the water will flow out at a much much faster rate."

So how do I know if my exhaust will have good velocity? Is it the headers?

Ive had or heard damn near every setup out there and I still as always stick by Corsa exhausts. There is nothing better sounding and quiet at cruise speeds than a corsa IMO. When done right without cats and using a resonator they arent abd either. A corsa touring with a resonator will take a lt and no cats exhaust pretty well.
