MarQ45, welcome to the board. I suggest you read the posts as Q45tech (in particular) has experiemented and (more importantly) measured various exhaust setups. You will find the one on the Q45 is one of the best for both durability and efficiency, and unless you want loud, your money is better spent elsewhere.

If you want some more rumble, then change the rear resonator with a straight thru design muffler such as a Magnaflow or a Dynomax Ultrafow.

Use the stainless steel versions for longevity.

Don't bother changing anything else out. There isn't much power to be found in replacing the mufflers under the car as they are straight thru from the factory. I have already been down that road.

Careful as the rear assembly is also straight thru........many of the reflective designs have much more backpressure than oem stock.

If you can't see straight thru it ---------it is worst.
