I had a MagnaFlow x-pipe and liked it.

I've had both the MagnaFlow and the Dynatech X-pipes and they both worked well.

I have the Borla X-Pipe and it really helps to lessen the deceleration popping through my Stingers. The X-Pipe also quiets the exhaust considerably (which is worthwhile if you have a loud exhaust system and don't care for the noise/resonance when driving for extended periods).

That's about it. I got the MagnaFlow since Shawn (LAPD) had them at a good price. I suggest giving him a call and find out what he can do for you on the various brands. Tell him I sent you
