Default XSPower Catback

So right now I have a B&B rt66 catback and a Bassani X-pipe (on the car when I bought it). Sounds fine but I definitely want louder. I'm not looking for anything that drones really bad since I drive it quite often. I also have a 98 S10 Zr2 with a flowmaster dumped right after the muffler and it is very loud inside the truck. So don't get me wrong, some drone is fine and I know that some drone will be present in a lot of exhaust systems. All that being said, I thought I had my mind set on Corsa Xtreme since it looks good, sounds good, seems to be fairly loud, and doesn't drone. But then I see the XSPower catback that Superman09 is selling for half the price. My only problem with this exhaust is I cant find a good video that satisfies me. I want to hear it under acceleration and flybys with the camera sitting still outside the car, BUT with a stock engine. (not cammed or anything). I have seen a video of someone reving with it and Superman09 has great videos but his car is cammed and I know a cam has to change the exhaust note. Also have seen a gopro video from someone else on here but still not what I'm looking for. So, anyone have a video I may have missed or care to make one? It would be much appreciated and I'm sure will help others out as well. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply but hopefully you can't blame me for wanting to hear a decent clip of it before I buy it? (on a non-cammed car that is)
Really wish this was in the C5 section. I didn't want to make a repost.
