not sure which exhaust to recommend. i have the mopar with a custom downpipe and it pops loud as hell.

what i can tell you though is that an exhaust isn't going to get you 30hp,.. not out of a stock car anyway..

maybe someone else can give their opinion.

oh, and check the reviews page ,.. there may be some exhausts listed on there

No exhaust will yield an increase of 30hp at the wheels...at least not on a car that's not highly modified. I would suggest that u get the needswings 3" downpipe with electric cutout...then u can run any kind of catback exhaust u want. if u want it quiet then leave the stock exhaust on and add the magnaflow rear section since it has a muffler. u can always push the button to open the cutout which will bypass the cat and dump the exhaust right under the car to maximize power gains.

http://www.needswings.com to read more about it...even has sound clips.

when u open the cutout it gets EXTREMELY LOUD...but when closed it sounds almost stock.

The pop is caused from the fuel cut you COULD turn that function off with the SCT software. I run a 3" turboback from VRS exhaust, It comes just with all the parts you need to make an exhaust so if you don't have welding skills you should pass on VRS. I have two mufflers on mine, originally I just had the Magnaflow muffler which is actually the same one they use on an LS1 Camero, one inlet two outlets (it's mounted in the rear of the car) but when I put on the 3076 I added a Moroso turbine core muffler as well. It does nothing for sound at idle but it really makes a huge difference when you rev it, and most importantly at cruise on the highway. My car is IMO the perfect setup for the most power and just enough sound to make me happy.
