Default Best Dual Exhaust?

I'm thinking of going with the Pypes system that AM used on their project car, but couldn't I get a system off of a GT for a lot cheaper? Maybe that wont work and there's a reason, and I don't know that reason, so that's why I'm asking. Would a GT exhaust work or not on my 08' v6...

Newtakeoff.com has catback exhaust systems for our v6. I pieced together my exhaust system so there are plenty of possibilities for you to take.

Best WHAT?

Performance (since the exhaust will provide little to no gain anyway, this is a moot point)?

Sound?

Price?

The GT manual takeoffs with an H pipe have a deep tone
and sound pretty healthy. They are not loud however.
And yeah you can buy them cheap. A quality "John Doe"
shop can install and do the driver side mid pipe and the "H"
Stay away from the nationwide chain muffler/exhaust shops.
"John Doe" may even let you cut the bumper cover while it's
on the lift. Tips equal length and centered. Done deal.

So serious question, I've done some reading and am finding out that a lot of guys choose the GT takeoff muffler, and enjoy that a ton, and when they upgrade to duals, there isn't much difference in the duals and the GT takeoff. What would you guys suggest? The only thing about the GT takeoff is finding someone around me that has a GT w/ a new exhaust lol.

Go with the Ford Racing exhaust. Quality is great and its sounds awesome. A little on the pricy side but after the first run up and down the street, it was worth every penny

I highly recommend the true duals from NTO, sounds awesome too for 1/3rd the price!
