Everyone will tell you to buy the exhaust system that they like. Listen to as many different brands as possible, then decide which sound you like.

I have the Corsa Indy Tigershark and love it.
Pro: No drone!
Con: Not the `60's muscle-car sound I grew up with.

Your best bet is to find several different exhausts on peoples car and listen to them (at idle and while driving / riding) then make your choice. Try a local car club, they'll have lots of different setups available.

Here’s another test … look for Quality.

Look at exhaust that’s been on for over three years and see what they look and sound like.

My Corsa’s have been on for six years and still look and sound like they did when I first put them on.

Good Luck

Bullets are great if you want loud. I inherited a set on my 99 FRC. They sound good, and look tough, but I knew they'd be louder than I want when I put long tubes/heads/cam on in the spring. If you go Bullets, be prepared for the drone...

If you ever want to go with the TigerShark rear fascia, the Corsa TigerShark exhaust would be the way to go. They will fit in the smaller opening for the fascia.

If that's not a concern or desire, then looking and listening to a variety of brands would be a good move.
