    Do you want one for sound or performance?

    Which ever one sounds best is totally up t oyou and your ear. Flowmaster is the loudest, but loses about 5 HP.

    Dynomax super turbo gives the biggest performance gain at about 5 HP.

    Do you have any proof of this?

    Change in weather alone will make/break 5-15hp easy.

    There are quite a few on the market. Best bet is to youtube the sound clips so you can get an idea of how they sound. Then it all boils down to what you want to spend. Quality=money. Also you want to keep in mind what other things you might want to do in the future with mods. That will dictate if you need more flow or not. Do you want to do a cat back or just muffler swap. A muffler swap alone will usually net you a decent gain just because you free up some flow.
