well I have a 05' OZ and I went to a muffler shop and had them throw on 2 1/4 pipe with a flowmaster muffler and it sounds great....I still have the 2 catalytic converters on there because of emission laws but it sounds great....no rice sounds....nice deep rumble.

p.s. only cost me about 150 for whole exhaust setup

I have JUST a magnaflow muffler and it is really deep. V6 sounding from 2krpm-4krpm. Not too loud, but not quiet either. Above 4krpm it is a nice smooth sound that quiets down just a tad and at idle it is VERY quiet.

go with magnaflow. Ive had mine from RRM for a while now and am in love with it. I only have the muffler cause you don't need a catback unless you're really modded. Our exhausts are pretty straight (no crazy curves or corners). Just a header and muffler are all you really need. But I'd get a magnaflow. My friend has a different magnaflow and it sounds awesome too. And if you want a catbakc, don't waste money on a nice shiny one, get it custom done for like a quarter of the price of a brand name one.

I have the Geddy Evo2 and its sexy as hell sounding. I still have both cats as well. It only really gets ricey when you slap on the headers.

i dunno, im still looking into getting one myself.
from video's and sound clips i've heard, magnaflow or flowmaster are the nicest.
do one of those with a custom cat back.

thats what im saving me pennies to do

ok so i am thinking magnaflow, if i get some headers will it be too loud? i know that sri and exhaust will not give me a big boost in hp, but what mod will be the best bang for the buck, but i also want to stay n/a!
