I put on the Flowmaster kit a little over a year ago, and have been very pleased with the sound. The finish is nice, too.

I'm not a fan of either exhaust but I think Flowmaster sounds better. Borla beats them both.

If you have $1k to spend, I would get a Borla catback. I have the Magnaflow catback, cost was about $450, and it sounds good to me. I debated on the Flowmasters, but they just didn't sound good to me, got way too raspy when you get on it. Getting a catback gives you all the parts you need to install it yourself, and it is pretty simple to do. I would also get a new intake, I have a SLP CAI and I also have the Z style hood.

I have the flowmaster with OBX headers. Flowmaster came with the car Headers I added. I get a lot of compliments on how the car sounds. Even from other car guys

I like magnaflow the most for a street exhaust, or have your local shop fab you up a 3" system with a hooker aero chamber, that sounds pretty good too.
