Which exhaust Kit?

Im looking at cheap cat back exhausts on ebay(have $50 gift card) and i found a dynomax for cheap. Im not looking for HUGE power gains, but a little would be nice. Im mostly looking to get rid of the ricey sound of my no name muffler.

Anyone have any experience with this?
I will also be hollowing out my cat untill it comes time for emmisions.

As a matter of fact, i think i will hollow it out tomorrow

I also was looking at this...

But its quite a bit more.

Thanks in advance for any help.

A Cat Back system wont net you any HP gains,none youll notice anyway.You will have that exhaust note youre looking for though.

pacesetter and dynomax exhaust systems are pretty much crap. you're better off buying a muffler you like and a fancy tip and going to get it put together...

heres mine. I also have headers and a test pipe in place as the cat. both the cat and test pipe are inner changeable.

Damn that sounds sexy
I will keep that idea in mind. Im still not sold on any perticular set up.
I might end up just welding on a glasspack and a highflow cat.
Today i was planning on hollowing it out, but i dont want to throw any bad codes. My o2 sensor is already messed up and reads a rich and lean code(25 and 26).

I wouldn't hollow it out... never know when you might need it again.

Yeah, i know what you mean.
I cant decide! There are so many choices.
I guess i could just go the cheap route and get a muffler to start, and eventually get a highflow cat.
Would exhaust pipe diameter make much of a difference in sound?

pipe diameter makes a big difference in sound. go with 2.25. some guys just cut the stock muffler out and bolt up the aftermarket muffler. it'll add a small tone, but it'll be better with bigger piping.
