Default Exhaust System - Which to get

I've got a 2001 Z06 with a Vararam Intake, and Magnaflow X-Pipe. I'm a little of tired of having a 400hp car, that doesn't sound very agressive (especially at idle).

So, i'm considering a couple of exhaust systems. Right now i'm considering the Borla Stiner Dual Tip System, the SLP Loudmouth System, and because I already have their X-Pipe, the Magnaflow Exhaust System.

I want something that sounds really powerful at idle, and also when I put my foot down. I also wouldn't mind a little extra HP.

Suggestions Please..

I have the Corsa Titanium Race Exhaust I love it but also I have headers and a cam so it makes it even louder and more aggresive. But I think that exhaust would sound great even on a stock car.

well, I've heard LMs in person and they sound great.. only c5 that held a candle to the sound of my cobra with flows.... they're basically straight pipes... they have a widening in the pipe that is 'resonance' chamber, but it does nothing :cool:

I'm running the Magniflow X pipe and GHL exhaust. Couldn't be happier (and I've had Boral).
