Default Off road x-pipe

Where can I find the cheapest off road x-pipe for long tube headers for an 06 GT? Any help will be appreciated. So far 260 for the SLP is all I can find, and seeing how they are one for the more expensive brands, I know there has to be something else out there.

For a little more cash, Basanni makes a sweet x-pipe with cats and also with inserts with the bungs for o2 sensors....gives ya the option to change em out any time ya want too ..I opted to keep the high flow cats in ..but if I ever want to get rid of them, its only a few wrench turns away..http://www.rpmoutlet.com/05gtbasx.htm

I like magnaflow, high quality, little cheaper than Bassani and MAC. One thing though, I know you want cheap but make sure you go with stainless steel especially if you sometimes drive for less than 20 minutes. If not, the aluminized steel will rust from the inside out in about 3-4 years or sooner depending on where you live. Spend a little more for better quality. There are O/R X-pipes on e-bay for $199 but they are the aluminized steel if thats what you want.

I am also thinking of getting some x-pipes for my 05 GT. How much louder did the exhaust get? I already have the slp loudmouths & to me they aren't too bad. My suburban with a 454, cam,headers & flowmasters is a lot louder.

I got the JBA shorties, bassani x-pipe w/highflow cats through MAC axle backs ..the exhaust is a little louder but it sounds Oh-so-sweet..Honestly its one of the best investments i've made for my 05...Have no idea how much louder the long tubes are, but I can imagine there is a sound difference ..IMHO, I think its the way the 05's should sound ...distinctive sound to match the distinctive look.
