Now if I put the SS stock exhaust on with the magnaflow x pipe and I still don't like the sound (which shouldn't be much louder than the V6 stock exhaust) I have the option of slapping on one magnaflow muffler right underneath the car and going straight pipe all the way back or two individual mufflers where the original stock mufflers are. Another option is that I could buy a set of MRT2.0 mufflers and put those on. With that said I would have a full 2.5" exhaust system for the low because most SS guys give them away for little to nothing. Is what I'm saying make sense now? REMEMBER this idea is not to make my car sound like a specific exhaust system on the market, it's just to have a better flowing system to tailor to what you/I want later down the road. In my opinion if you have the SS stock exhaust with the magnaflow x pipe it should sound close to our stock exhaust with better flow. A better flowing exhaust will improve gas mileage and performance when needed, or am I just crazy lol

makes sense to me. you want to go up to 2.5" piping. The SS exhaust can be had for cheap, used. I say do it. Then adjust it from there, with different mufflers, etc. Because yes, a full cat back exhaust system will cost you over a grand.
