Hooker or Dynomax?

well im looking for a cat-back system.. im either going to go with the dynomax ultra flow cat-back system.. or the hooker aerochamber cat-back system.. was wondering what everyone would get.. i have stock exhuast manifolds and cat.. which might soon be replaced.. im looking for a louder sound sound.. ive heard that a hooker sounds good and is also loud.. i havent hear dmuch about the dynomax .. but some say that they have a nicr deeper sound to them.. any suggestions?

Dynomax systems are the quietest of them all. I would opt for the Hooker. I love mine and you won't be dissapointed.

If you want it loud than you should look at a bullet style muffler or no muffler at all. The restrctive size of the stock manifolds, y-pipe and cat greatly reduce the sound of these cars. A muffler alone won't change the sound to "loud".

i understand that.. i dont want it ridiculously loud.. i think now there might be a possibility of me getting headers.. and going true dual setup with two hooker aerochamber mufflers.. another reason i cant go no muffler or no cats.. to pass inspection NJ sucks =(
