I went with Magnaflow because of the cost and the perceived value of the "true-x" design. I doubt that you'd really notice a sound or any real power difference between the popular makes.

If your really want volume, skip the x and save up for some LT headers and HF cats. Check out the sound with GHL Bullets.
