Default Catback!

ok, i was gettin all ready to go to a muffler shop and get a mandrel bent custom 2.5 inch exhaust fabricated, and try to get them to leave out the cat, or put in a high flow cat. now all of a sudden, the MBRP catback on speedstate.com took a price dive to 467 dollars. what's the better deal/ gets me more power?

There are other more Hyundai orientaited groups out there with better prices than $467 for a catback.

What would you guys recommend then?
I really like the deep tone of the MBRP.
I am looking for top performance and a low ballzy sound for a 01 Tib regardless of price.
I want the best.

I would go with the people that "specailize" in Hyundai over another comapany that just happens to make something for your car.
Both Skierd an I posted hints, but I guess it was not acceptable as my post got edited an Skierd's deleted...
Just shop around, you'll be able to find some quality.

Why buy one? Get a custom one! Get yourself a nice highflow cat, glasspack, highflow muffler, and choose what diameter piping you want, and have a muffler shop install it all for you. Cheaper than a catback premade, and it's custom so it's to your tastes.

No more product debates?
The SR Cat compared to KORE's then?

I'm too lazy to make my own. Ah, what the hell, I might look into it more.

I don't think SR has released their catback yet.

Too lazy? You're too lazy to save yourself over 100$?

High flow cat-$100
Glasspack-20$(at most)
Muffler-150$
Install-50-100$(Depending where you go)
Thats $320-$370. Isn't the MBRP like $500? Plus you get exactly what you want.
