I would go with the bassani high flow X. I had it and it sounded great!
They also have the highest flowing cats. The won an award from SEMA for them---they had an article in MMFF about it

Bassani, but.....I would contact them directly and tell them you want the X-pipe with the stock type exit rather than the slip-fit exit. The slip-fit is extremely annoying if your exhaust needs to be removed for any reason.

Thanks for the replies... and I realize that hearing cars in person is the best way to decide, but unfortunately the odds of finding a car with the exact (or even very similar) setup are very slim.

It made the tone a little bit less than with the pypes cats. but it seems to get a little bit louder over time but that is just my opinion....
