Default Exhaust (MAC, Magnaflow, or JBA)

Ok, i hate to start another exhaust post.... but i can't seem to decide on which exhaust to get. I'm currently between three dual exhaust setups.

1) MAC Performance 2.5" Cat Back Exhaust, 4" Slashcut, Rolled Tips

2) Magnaflow Dual Cat-Back Exhaust

3) JBA True Duals

I am looking for the deepest sound while still having good increase in power. I plan on using an H-pipe setup. My car is a manual. Anyone with these kits have good or bad things to say about them?

I have a question along these lines, as well...
There is a considerable difference in price between the JBA ceramic coated shorty headers and the MAC ceraMAC coated shorty headers, is there a big difference in quality?

There is an exhuast sticky at the top of this page where members have recorded clips of their different exhaust setups. Gotta warn you though....it's a tough decision!!!! lol.......

I personally went with the MAC and love it......but you have some decision making to do to make sure you nail the sound you're looking for!

I can't comment on the quality as I don't have either....I do know that the MAC's are not CARB exempt.

I have dual flowmaster 40's and I love them. I know they were not on your list but they should not be ruled out unless you have had a bad experience w/them in the past.

they sound great
