    If you don't change the piping diameter any performance gains are negligible. If you're going for just a sound, I'd go with something in stainless steel by Vibrant

    Magnaflow sounds great. Over 70k on mine, no rust, still get compliments.

    I have the Magnaflow 5x8x18 2.5 IN/OUT. Great sound it gives a nice low growl. Pretty loud on the acceleration but chils out when you let off the pedal, absolutely no cabin drone on the freeway unlike "Dronemaster". Extremely happy with Magnaflow.

    I got the magnaflow also, has a nice deep sound but not enough to give you a headache. You can hear it when your on the stupid pedal. But once you let off nice and quiet.

    I got mine from Amazon 5x8x18. Go to Magnaflow find the one you like or call them, they have great customer service!! They should also have a list of vendors on the site.

    Here's mine from Magnaflow's site:
    http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/shopexd.asp?zone=main&id=10903

    Here it is on Amazon:

    You're not going to find performance unless you change the entire piping. Vibrant mufflers have always treated me and my friends well

    I bought mine here: http://www.hottexhaust.com/Magnaflow_12576

    Comes to $111.62 free s/h. You'll see the 3% discount in the cart once you add it.

    Boy they've gone up a lot in price. I think I paid $80 5 years ago, lol
