My recommendation is to find a muffler shop in your area that has a pipe bending machine and to have a custom exhaust system built. It will be cheaper than one of the "named" exhaust systems and will fit better and be more tuneable. Look around to see you can find a high performance exhaust shop and go talk to them because they will be able to help out with muffler selection (i.e., tone, volume, and pitch) and will be able to suggest pipe size (i.e,. 2", 2.5", 3"). They might even have a dyno (doubtful since our cars are AWD, but you never know...) and that would allow for exact exhaust tuning.

I personally like the Mina Gallery system with the 1.5 pipes each side look. You're looking for a 2.5" inlet system, but the restriction starts at the cat so if you are looking for huge HP (even 10HP) gains unless you start right at the manifold since our cats are mounted at the manifold you will be disappointed.

I understand this thread may be dead, but I was just wondering from jaggyx and also mike what the cost of the magnaflow system was installed. I could install it myself, but it's really not worth it because exhaust shops are fairly cheap and have all of the right tools (pipe bender.) Thanks in advance!

I went with Mina because it was a good package deal. sound was a little different. i have a comparison on sights and sounds post. the biggest difference in sound was adding the Spectre intake. that made the most difference in sound. Borla does make some nice tips that you can put on a Magnaflow canister. ill try to get a video of Mina exhaust with the Spectre intake soon as i can
