Alex quit being lazy. (Sorry had to do it) Check out the marketplace for a used exhaust or look for a knock off. Don't just settle, I'm sure you can find something nice and still within your budget.

what one of my friends did was bought a nice brand name muffler and had a shop custom make an exhaust system for him, it was cheap because youre not paying for the name, its just piping

you can also remove the resonators and it'll make it a lil louder

just go on youtube for the sound. I just copied the magnaflow set up.

sound is like stock but much more amplified, especially when on full thorttle. no droan at all. (mid pipe back)

just go to a muffler shop and tell them you want a 2.5 inch magnaflow muffler that is used on the camaros, then just do your piping.

I got mine for 150 cause my buddy did it at his cost but anywhere else should be around 250.
