Default Exhaust options

I need a new exhaust and I have been looking around and I found this option.

http://www.borla.com/products/produc...?cat=2&type=43

And then have custom cheap pipe ran from there back.
What do you guys think?
I do not know the exhaust pipe size.

I bought a Magnaflow 2 1/2 and it was slightly too big but my muffler had already been changed at least once. You can use the stock pipe to the back without any fitting problem.

Magnaflows are half the price of the Borla, plus this seller offers free shipping;

Complete cat-back exhaust for $190 + ship. Or could go with just the center muffler for $100 and pipe to the back

I need quiet, or near quiet so no cherry bomb for me.
My old exhaust is rusted into one piece so no reusing the old pipes or rear muffler.
I am going to look into the Magnaflow Jull, thanks for the link.

I like those prices Kenk, I had been looking with not much luck.
Midas wants $150+tax for a "custom" cat back exhaust, which means universal muffler and pipe with no rear muffler, I prefer stock sound but the high flow Borla/Magnaflow is appealing.
AtlanticBritish has a OEM kit for $300 with free shipping, but your option is cheaper and thats alright by me.

I like the Borla, but I know Magnaflow is good as well. Wonder if the HP is about the same?

I like the Borla being Stainless Steel.

I agree but I also dont want to rip off a nice expensive stainless steel muffler while offroading.
As long as I didnt crush it on a rock or rip it off on a log it would be the last muffler I ever bought.
