Hahn 3" Catback Question

Okay so I'm on the Hahn website and i want to order an exhaust. I have a 2007 Cobalt SS/SC with Stage 2 and a K&N Intake. They have a race version for $380 and a street version for $530. Any suggestions on which one i should go with? The link is right here Hahn Racecraft - Automotive Turbosystems

Thanks

Don't need a 3" on a supercharged car.
ZZPerformance - 2.5 inch Stainless Cobalt Catback Exhaust #ZZ-25CBTCB

And if you're on the stock dp I'd replace that first, it's crushed badly at the o2 sensor..

I agree with slowline. Also the Hahn is loud as hell.

You should go with corsa, I think they sound the best.

hahn sounded like roasted ******* on my tvs, but it sounded like se with the turbo.

magnaflow 2.5" also sounded like **** on the SC, and the only thing i heard that sounds extremely good is the gmpp touring on my car. it's a smaller 2.25" but that's not as big of an issue as people play it out to be. hell it took people here 3-4 years to admit you don't need a 3" on a SC.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the suggestions. I'll be looking in to your ideas. I like the sound and price of the GMPP Touring Exhaust, but what downpipe should i get and exhaust tip? Also what should I be paying for a downpipe? And should I get a header? Sorry guys I'm not real familiar with all this stuff lol

How about the SLP cat-back? Trying for a slightly cheaper route.

just get the gmpp tip, it looks good. downpipe and header.. that's all on you buy i would recommend getting a downpipe with a max of 2.5" exit if you go with the gmpp

and this.

Good luck finding a GMPP Touring exhaust though. They aren't made anymore. Your best bet would be to find a nice used one.
