Default Pypes or Magnaflow?

I want to get a new exhaust system with x-pipe for my 65 with full length headers. I've heard good things about Magnaflow, but what about Pypes?

I have Magnaflows on my truck and i like them. They sound good and flow great. Like the straight thru design. I dont know anything about Pypes, but if they are cheap enough, you could slap them on and see if you like them. Dont like the sound of Flows?

I have Flowmaster 40s but with skinny pipes. I just want a complete 2.5" kit with x-pipe. If they sold such a kit for the '65 without mufflers I would reuse my Flowmasters.

Dr. Gas

Dr. Gas X-Pipe 3" to 2 1/2". Fit up perfectly to my 3" header collectors and very noticeable performance gains. The also mellowed the droning 40's a bit, made it a lil more comfortable ride inside.

...and you can finish the exhaust system out the back with these 2 1/2"-er's if you want. Preformed...fit perfectly up and over my 8"

Thanks 65mojoe, but I thought about that already.
Dr. Gas is $408 total.
A complete Magnaflow kit WITH mufflers is $490 and it's stainless steel.
