you should just buy a TBE or a cat-back and see some real gains in HP.

How much are you willing to spend... you can get some nice exhausts for very cheap.

Its not that im looking cheap. Its that I want something that will go on and off easy when I go to the sealership (I really don't want to jack-up the car but I guess I could). I also don't want it to be very very loud. And I want it to look kinda stock not one of those huge import exhausts that you can see from a mile a way. Im pritty happy how it is stock just want a little more exhaust sound. =)

i would go Buscher TBE with the magnaflow muffler or just get a high flow cat or both. ether one of those would make it quiet plus they keep the stock exhaust apperance and have good WHP gains .. if your going for power thats where its at.. but if you really want the axel back i think the buschur is almost exactily what you discribed

BUSCHUR SCCA legal catback with Magnaflow is AWESOME! sound is fantastic and clean. . . fitment is great but not perfect. This plus the works reflash = EXELLENT tuning.

One more vote for the WORKS - I got it for Christmas. Great part, very high quality. It has a nice sound too, just a little deeper than stock, like you said. I had similar goals when looking to upgrade.

It maintains a similar sound level to the factory exhaust system, but subtracts about 15 pounds from the weight of the car, and improves flow by way of a Buschur-designed 2.5" straight-through muffler
