Ive got a magnaflow cat back from mandrel exhaust systems. Its fairly loud but thats because it has no resonator.

go to the web site www.mandrelexhaustsystems.com

you can choose what size tubing, type of tubing, resonator/no resonator, and muffler/no muffler

they will weld resonator in
the rest is bolt on for ez installation
comes with clamps, gasket, and bolts.

Ive heard from many people that magnaflow for our car is shitty.
Modern Performance doesnt even sell it anymore because of the issues.
Keep that in mind

i have a magnaflow cat back on my 2.0 sc and imo its the best sounding exhaust hands down when you get on it, it can be loud but overall its not bad, its not a raspy loud, its a good crisp echo
