I believe the MRT is supposed to have higher performance gains than the others, but I've never seen any dyno data on that, so it might just be talk. Generally speaking though, the axle-back mufflers are not useful for increasing horsepower. It's basically just a ricer rumor, like "Oh yeah, I threw on that big fart can muffler and got an extra 25hp." The axlebacks you listed might gain 1-2 horses, the MRT maybe 3 horses, if that. I haven't seen dyno testing to back that up, so they might all (MRT included) just give you an extra horse.

For sound, I bought the Flowmaster AT, and I completely love it. It's got that nice raw, rough, coarse sound that fits the look of a muscle car perfectly.

The MRTs are loud, but they sound a little too refined for my tastes, sort of like a european sports car kind of noise. If you want something mean and loud, go with the Flowmaster. I've never regretted buying that muffler for a second. Makes lots of noise, gets lots of attention, and sounds pretty ballsy from idle all the way up to high rev.
