Default exhaust help

Hey i am getting an exhaust this summer from the money i am making and i need help choosing whcih one. I dont really want to go over $400 becasue my parents will shit themsleves if i do. I was thinking about a magnaflow performance but some people say they are redneckish. Some kid with a 300zx told me to just get a muffler and cut some stuff off but i think i would rather get some power out of it i am not to concerned with the sound. so what do you guys think.

You should try to do a search.

1. You don't get much gain through a full exhaust system.
2. A good system will run you over 400
3. Muffler + 2.25" to 2.5" Piping is a better cheaper way to go, since I know mine squeeze out more horse.
4. High Flow Catalytic converter would do yo some good.
5. Decent Exhaust brands are: Greedy, Apex'I, HKS, etc.
6. Please do a search

Go with what poohboi said. Only thing, if your not going to run some serious power, I saw just stay with the stock cat. You will lose some low-to-mid end power which is good for the stop and go traffic.

buy the greddy evo ... $400 is a pretty damn good price if that includes shipping. Greddy and HKS are the top brands when it comes to catbacks

nothing wrong with magnaflow, they make good resonators to use with custom piping

I am trying to decide between the magnaflow and the gredd. the magnaflow is cheaper and has to mufflers which will look better but everyone says the greddy is better. If i can get that one greddy for 400 i am gonna go with that other than that i will have to go with the magnaflow.
