Catback Recomendations?

I am looking to replace my stock exhaust with a new catback system. Im looking for something that sounds nice, and it inexpensive. I have an emissions test next month, and Im scared I wont pass. I have an LG4.

Hooker cat-back, for the money best there is. I bought the $200 one and had it welded on.

I thinking of going with the Hooker catback for around $250.

Description: Each Hooker Cat-Back exhasut system is mandrel bent from 3" 16 ga.(.060) wall aluminized tubing for minimal backpressure and long life. These systems are designed using flanged construction and utilize existing stock hangers for easy installation and included Hookers' Aerochamber muffler. Aerochamber mufflers offer the lowest backpressure of any high performance muffler. All of these systems exit in the stock locations with 3" dual chrome large bore tips.

The american thunder uses existing stock hangers too...and is all 3" too...but what separates the two is that this one is stainless steel. I don't know about the backpressure and all that though but it is loud.
