need a little advice

have a stock 305 in my 90 tbi rs
will be installing lt1 cam and edelbrock tbi intake
i need a new exhuast system
i have been considering the
$200 hooker cat back system (+ mod to fit)
or the $170 "correct" dynomax system
Which is a better buy for a mellow idle to part throttle and loud Wot?

Hooker sound clip in sig, if you haven't heard it, low interior noise as well.

Well for a mellow idle and loud WOT I would say Hooker. Now if you wanted a loud idle and loud WOT then a Flowmaster would be good

And for a different tone all together I would go with a Ravin. You can only get the muffler at your local midas, little inside noise, quite at idle, and loud at wot. I thought my car was quite but when a budy of mine got in the car and reved it up, it sounded so nice!! Just goes to show how quite it was in the car.
