you have to make a custom one, most use magnaflow or borla, you can pay more and get a sprint, remus, or other higher end axle back.

If you want one specifically for your car, Eisenmann has one, but it's over a grand.

Probably a couple more that are specific to your car, but they'd probably be in the same price stratosphere.

Yes, phister's one of the good ones here. Just wish he would choose a setup for his car, and stick to it.

If you don't want to buy a whole exhaust setup, you can always take it to a local muffler shop and have them delete certain parts. I took mine in to get the resonator delete and muffler upgrade and it sounds pretty nice. Lots of droning though.

From what I heard i really liked that resonator idea so I went to a local performance & exhaust place and to delete the resonator he said 70 but then he said but for 400 I can put a manga flow and resonator delete I love the idea just don't want a loud drive inside he said it would not be but what if it is and anybody think 400 for that is a good deal or no

Deleting the resonator will definitely make it louder. I hadn't mentioned it earlier, but I also upgraded my piping to 2.5" all the way through after the cat.

Oh nice well since u have some idea of it ... I was told they can put the resonator back on if I didn't like it after a wile so my question.... would u just pay the 70 for the resonator or do the manga flow for 400 including the resonator delete ..

I would go for it. I paid around 360 for mine and I didn't even get any name brand parts.

i bought my own muffler and tips and had 2.5 piping all the way back from the cats for less than 125. cant believe yall pay 400 for that work guess its because they supply the parts for yall, i spent around 175 for all the parts so I guess its right.

a lot of exhaust use v band clamps now for easy install. They even have kits so you can make your own for fairly cheap.

I've seen on forums some people have been using Magnaflow 14815 and 14830, does anyone know if I have to cut my bumper out for the tips to fit or get some sort of shield so that the bumper won't melt from the protruding tips? Also, would it be a direct muffler swap or do I have to get some adapters to fit it as well?

Thanks in advance

you dont need a shield to protect the bumper. just make sure when its installed that theres a gap in between the bumper and the tips. Mine are pretty close to the bumper and i have no issues.
