Ok I found a exhaust system that I like for sound and cost.
Is there any comparable system to this one in NA preferably Canada...there's no pictures.

Is that video supposed to be a recording of that specific exhaust product? On the web page, I don't see a link to that video or sound clip.
Another important thing to note...the rear-most exhaust boxes are designed as resonators, which prevent an annoying drone in the cabin at certain engine speeds. A number of guys on this forum have removed those rear-most boxes, and they've been quite unhappy with the sound. Most have put them back on. The center muffler and the two immediately behind it are removable, without drone issues for the most part.
The product you're referencing appears to replace the rear-most boxes - the resonators - with straight pipes. That will likely make you quite unhappy on the highway, as the drone in the cabin will be undeniable.

It doesn't say what you get for $169. Probably not much.
That exhaust sounds mostly stock, fwiw.
Removing the center muffler adds more in-cabin noise. I'd opt to remove two of the rear mufflers before the center.
Here's one I recorded of mine, but I have the NP cats, Borla center and Mina Gallery rear, certainly more than $169 worth of mods lol:
