Been covered a million times. Flowmasters are inexpensive and loud - I don't have any personal experience with them.

I have one vette with Corsa and one with Borla.

Check it out:

Part of the reason the Corsa is louder is that it has long tube headers and no cats. The car with the Borla will be getting headers soon.

The Borla drones a bit at low rpm's, both are stainless steel and fairly pricey.
