Performance Exhaust?

I've been seeing a lot of different exhaust systems for the P5 and i've been thinking of getting something for my P5 also. However, i don't want something that's too loud or high squeeky whine everytime i drive around the city. What i'm looking for is a Full Catback exhaust that has a smooth LOW sound, and Hums while in idle. I know the greddy ones tend to be high pitched. Anyone with experience on this can you tell me what are my options out there and roughly HP gains or price?

I did do a search on exhaust , but not too much info was found. I heard the skunk2 exhaust was well priced, but couldn't find any sound clips on it.

I just talked to them acouple days ago and they said they are makin a catback for the Proto (ready in about 3 weeks), and it should b under $350 is what they said. I dont really know too much more detaisl than that right now, but if u find out more let us all know.

there are a few options out there....I got the Bosal Cat-Back, it has that low growl to it...and you can barely tell its not stock exhaust at idle. I really like it...the fit is great, the sound is great, and the finish is great...its polished stainless steel from front to back.

but like Blue mentioned....if you get a muffler you like....a decent muffler shop can make the rest of it for you easy enough...just make sure they mandrel bend their piping....and you can get out for around $200 or less.

to get more information....try searching using "cat-back"

so Blue, U dont think that the Cork Sport catback is a good idea?
U dont think they can make a decent exhuast ?

Just wondering what U think.

BTW the Injen went in flawlessly.

the racing beat cat back looks like a nice system. they have dynos on there website too. they say just a little louder than stock with a nice tone. a little pricy but i'm sure it's of high quality. this is probably the system i'd buy if i was going to buy an exhaust.
