Do a search and listen to the video and sound clips posted by the other members.
You should upgrade your cat.
Yes you can cross over to the passenger side.
You can do anything

The GM performance exhaust sounds the best and also is far less coin.

from what ive heard magnaflow is a good deal aswell, i just went through Gm cuz i liked the vids i saw and i got a nice discount, another treat was that annoying ticking stopped too, all in al im a happy camper

This is the best I've heard so far...barely any rasp and no baffle under decel as far as i can tell...also it sounds almost stock at anything other than WOT which is a major bonus for me

yes!!!! they do, i though i was the only one lol, we tried to straighten that sucker out for 20 min and eventually said screw it, ahwel, to me it still looks great, sounds good and got a few ponies outt it for a great price, later.
I have had my magnaflow for a month now and its awsome. Only time it ever makes a garble noise is when cold starting, then goes into this really mellow idle. That video link in the above thread is pretty much what my car sounds like but keep in mind i am usually in my car with windows down to hear it. so never heard reved up from that angle. My coworker has an SRT-4 and when we raced all he could hear was my exhaust and that awsome supercharger whine (Thats a good thing IMO)
magnaflow, without a doubt is the most farty sounding exhaust. If you want a nice 2.5 inch get the corsa but 2.25 is enough unless you plan on having like 500 horsepower. I love when people think you NEED, no MUST have a 2.5 inch exhaust in order to achieve proper gains. 600 horsepower mustangs have 2.5 inch exhausts. If you dont believe me go over to svt performance.com. They know alot more than th people on this site.

Yea they are problably running 2.5" dual exhaust. And there motors are NA not forced induction. For a FI motor a 3" is best. I think all these companies stuck with 2.5" exhaust because of sound levels when you go to 3" it gets loud no matter how big a resonator you have.
