Aftermarket Cats, Who's running 'em?

I've been looking into geting the Jardine system and I figured why not swap the cat (meow) while I'm there. I was wondering who is running aftermarket cats and what brand/model. I know most will chime in with CarSound and that'll be what I will go with unless I hear some reasons not to.

Optional question:
3.4L (98) cat is 3 Way no air 2.25" in/out right?

I put a Jardine catback and a Magnaflow cat on my 86 22RE 4Runner. I am impressed with the performance increase but the fit and design of the Jardine system is not that great. If I had it to do over I would not have used the Jardine system. As far as I can tell the Magnaflow cat works great.
