The GM Performance touring exhaust is deep but really really quiet and not much louder over stock. The Megan is deep and quiet when you're not in high revs, but if you floor it you'll hear it. This is all assuming you keep the stock downpipe. I'd suggest the Megan, quiet or loud whenever you want it.

The gmpp exhaust would be the best choice. If you get the ss/sc exhaust the muffler still looks the same just with a nice chrome tip.

Well then you could just get an aftermarket muffler welded on the stock piping.. That would be the cheapest route.

I have the tsudo exhaust and I love it! It has a nice deep tone and doesnt get raspy at high rpms. It might not be exactly what your lookin for, but just an idea for ya.

i have the GMPP Performance on mine, i like it.
also, don't waste your money on paying someone to install it.
you can do it yourself easily or find someone close to you to do it with you.

Check out more videos. Just search it on here and you tube. As for it sounding ricey it doesnt at all. If you watch the video on speed-element.com Thats exactly what it sounds like in person. Its not loud and obnoxious. My advise is read every piece of info on every exhaust and make an educated decision to fit your needs and wants. Check out the 2.2l section also. There is alot of info on this site that will help you make your car functional and reliable.
