What exhaust setup to get?

I just purchased the new warpspeed Y-pipe, and I'm looking to get the rest of the exhaust system. What should I get, and whats the best bang for buck?

or you could just go to your local muffler shop and get a custom 2.5" catback for cheap. if the warpspeed cat-back is only $275 i'd go with that.

I just went to Lou's custom exhaust in Plymouth, MA today; from reccomendation from two friends and a mechanic -- so glad I did. When my exhaust was letting go I went to meineke so they would put it up on a lift (I like going there and using them, making them think I will get it fixed there when all I want is my car up on a lift.) To check it out, needed a full catback for sure.

So, at Lou's, it would have been $225 for a stock replacement, $275 for intermediate with a glasspack and better muffler with a tip, and $350 for a full flowmaster or dynomax exhaust. Mind you, these are absolute prices, no labor charge, all systems welded in (no bolting pipes together -- kiss rusting goodbye for a a few extra years.) Also, 4 year warranty on the pipes and lifetime on all mufflers.

I did $275, got a great exhaust done in 1 1/2 hours and looks f'n awesome, sounds great, nice tone, not raspy, loud in the mid range right where it should be and surprisingly, on the highway it is QUIETER then my stock exhaust. That was a pleasant surprise, I was dreading testing it in fear of a droning sound!

So glad I went the custom exhaust route, meineke had quoted me $375 for a stock replacement that would have bolted together obviously -- f that.

I would take a picture but its been raining all day and I had it done this morning.

They also told me I could come back if I ever wanted a y-pipe installed or they could make one -- cheap.
