Default Flowmaster Vs Magnaflow

Hey guys, its getting close to christmas. You know what that means!
I'm stuck for my first mod on my 3.8 v6 98.
I'm looking at either Flowmaster ( http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...QF1317358.html )
or Magnaflow ( http://www.lmperformance.com/17999/13.html )
Most of the videos I've seen are terrible sound quality, so I'm looking for some first hand experience, any information is greatly appreciated.

P.S. Sorry for the fact I suck at clickies =(

Thats how I kind of felt about the Magnaflow, from a few clips in the high RPMs it sounded too high pitch for me.
I've also been leaning towards Flowmaster because it comes with the slip-fit cat.
Not to mention I found it for $330 with free shipping, definately beats out the Magnaflow $480 or so.

It's saying it fits the Camaro that has slip fit cat.

Well doesen't that suck...
Thanks for pointing that out lol.
Guess I'll have to chip in for a new cat, just a free-flow would be fine right?
