Ive had 3 different system on my Transam. I had Texas Speed's version of the SLP LM1 the first time. With longtubes and ORY it was very loud and just too much for me. Second one was a Magnaflow. This was great cause it was nice and quiet just driving till you jumped on it. Third is a Corsa. This exhaust is loud when your in it but as far as driving/highway driving its perfect as there is no drone inside the car what so ever. But for your budget on catback I would suggest Magnaflow.
