Default Best Cat Back System ?

I know this exhaust thing has been discussed to death already, but I am considering gettin a Cat Back put on my R/T Auto. Don't want anything too obnoxous, but something more aggressive than stock. Dont want the annoying drone sound when on the hiway either.

For those who already had the Cat Backs put on what make and model did you get and what is your opinion on them?? Also what did you pay. Thanks for the help.

I have the mopar catback exhaust and it sounds really nice when you are not going over 65. Once you are going over 65, forget having anyone in the back seat. It is really loud. I also have the mopar CAI. I paid $1500 for the CAI and Catback exhaust installed. I have an RT auto and I really like the looks of the Mopar catback because it has two pipes on each side. It sounds awesome when you start it up. It has a very loud drone noise at times and like I said it is really loud when you go over 65. As far as performance, I have a best 0-60 time on a flat road with no decline of 4.73. I did over 30 runs and I hit under 5 seconds 5 times. Other times varied from 5.1-5.5. I thought that Mopar claimed it had anti-drone technology on their exhaust system, but that is not true. I am still deciding if I want to keep it. Bottom line is it has good performance but it has some drone noise.

Is this the same system they are selling for the 08 Jeep Grand Cherokee ? I have a 5.7 that I am looking to out the Mopar Cat back on, but not sure if it will be too droney as well, just want something to make it a little more aggressive sounding. Thanks.

Talking Zoomers !!!!!

I just got done installing a Zoomers system on my R/T and all I can say is OMFG this system is awesome. If you are looking for something just a little louder then stock this isn't the one for you cause it is loud and very throaty.

Install was a piece of cake too. Only took me about an hour and a half to remove and install the whole thing by myself with just 2 ramps, a 13mm socket, 15mm socket and 15mm wrench.

Only thing I think I might have to do now is get a tune done on it just to get everything sync'd up and running at peak performance.

I used them on Stngs of course but not sure what they do for Challengers. I think you couldnt go wrond with Zoomers or again Corsa. Watch the vid on you tube-killer sounds and NO drone. Remember you get what you pay for. I learned that the hard way with the SLP exhaust I first tried.
