if just a little over stock is okay, as far as sound goes, you may find that the catted x will do the trick w/o the additional cost of a catback. The stock crappy converter is where the majority of flow restriction is so an aftermarket midpipe, with or without cats, adds some sound even with the stock muffs. If you want a tad more sound after the midpipe, I recommend the magnaflow chambered muff, it has one of the tamest deeper tones for an aftermarket muffler.
I have bbk long tubes, bbk off road x pipe, and borla mufflers with sensitive ears and I can tell you that the borla only begins to get loud once you get into the 2500-3000rpm range. Other than that it sounds like a dream.
weird. for some reason, my car is pretty loud throughout the whole rpm range. I know what you mean though, at about 2500+ ive never heard anything that loud in my life haha
Listened to alot of exhaust on youtube, its just hard to know how loud inside the car it is, but youtube was great on getting the right type of sound and choosing an x pipe.
