Ordering new exhaust!

Alright i'm finally getting a new exhaust for my Formula, it needs it bad. I am very set on the Hooker cat back. Before I order it, does anybody have any good or bad opinions on the hooker cat back? Does anybody have any exhausts that are better than this? Also, how do you think the hooker cat back will sound on a stock 350 5.7L TPI. Thanks guys!

~my dad wants me to go ravin, so there is no ordering or shipping involved, but I can't get away from the hooker. Should i go with the hooker, or ravin?
Thanks a lot guys!

i personally have never heard the ravin or so i think off the top of my head. i never thought of one since it was a lil bit pricey like those borla bastardos. i guess they must kick butt with a healthy price tag but i dont know. a lot of people on here swear by the hooker. i dont think u will be disapointed with it. have talked to anyone or seen anyone that didnt enjoy the tunes from their hooker. i say go hooker. cant go wrong with any holley products.

Just a consideration...Mufflex makes nice stuff and the Spintech muffler absolutely rocks for sound quality and (supposedly) restriction.

Check out www.mufflex-performance.com for more info. They make them in 3", 3.5", 4" single outlet, dual outlet, you name it.

Definitely hooker. You'll regret it if you don't.
