catted H or X pipe with straight thru style resonators. Try either slp or borla. Two favorites of mine by far.

off road x pipe and Magnaflow Magnapacks. thats about as loud as you can get, it would be straight through.

My car doesnt have an x pipe anymore due to my turbo setup...My car sounded great when I installed the turbo the sound left..Which I knew would happen due to turbo..My car has 3 inch stainless all the way back and it y's off into my catback..I was running sss exhaust before..Now I have it straight piped to get more sound out of it but it sounds awful...Just wondering what some other turbo guys are running for exhaust??I definately want a straight through setup to stay away from back pressure..

Magnapacks, Borla race mufflers, Pypes bullet style muffler are all going to be loud but have a nice tone. I personally like all mentioned and all are built out of stainless steel so they will last. I have the magnaflows 4x9 mufflers which are quieter than the magnapacks, and a offroad h pipe. I had a set of borla knock offs before with an off road x, very loaud. I liked both setups but got tired of the excess loudness of the borla wantabes, plus I went longtubes and a irs rear so the whole exhaust needed to be change

good ole y pipe, hard to get that deep tone with a glasspack, so if u don't wanna run a muffler its mever gonna sound like it did with the old x or h pipe.
