What catback did you get and how happy are you?

I am TOTALLY stuck on what catback system to go with. I know that it's really subjective and everyone has their own tastes. If you've installed one of the catback systems listed, I'd like to know which one and if you were happy or not. My goal is to learn two things... Who's buying what and of those who was happy with their choice and who wasn't.

Edit: I know that there are more out there, but after watching clip after clip, this is my short list.

I have the solo mach x and I am more than happy with it. It has awesome looks, sound and their customer service is outstanding. Price is great too. I would buy this system again.

Got screwed by original dealer in Eufuala, Oklahoma on November 3, 2009.
Found new one at Paddock Chevrolet and drove 2400 miles roundtrip to pick her up in Buffalo, New York on Nov. 5, 2009.

I have the MBRP (LS3) and am happy. It's perfect for me and the cars use as a daily driver.

None of the above. I had the muffler delete done for $80 and a few of the people around here that bought an expensive cat back are mad cause they spent the money and mine sounds alot better. All your paying for is a name.

I just installed the Flowmaster AT (on my back). It took about 2 hours (by myself). It sounds nice and throaty, but not obnoxious loud. Great transaction (price) and shipping from LMP Performance.

Magnaflow here. It is a little to quiet for me even with the headers.

SOLO MACH X, it is a no brainer. It is a quality HAND built, mandrel bent full stainless system with a unique deep but SMOOTH sounding tone.....very exotic sound! I love the sound, look, the power gain, NO DRONE, and the price. Not to mention everyone talks about the excellent customer service.......Thanks Steve, Thanks SOLO!!
