    I know this is a topic that gets beaten to death but please bear with me.
    I am in the market for a catback exhaust and I am really not sure what I want. I am actually purchasing a kit sooner than budgeted because I blew out my Suitcase over the weekend(yup blew) was doing some new Years drags and after 8 runs i heard a rattle coming from the underside of the car and saw the suitcase carnage(split open between the exhaust exits)
    5 star refused me because of the Drag racing I did(forgot to remove the caked on rubber) the dealerships around me SUCK...
    So today i had the sucker chopped off... Now my Magnum sounds like ass(raspy ass) the resonators are still there... SO

    The 2 exhausts I am considering are

    1 Magnaflow
    2 Zoomers

    Now I would like to know your personal opinion, on which one you would prefer to have if you were shopping for an exhaust.
    The only exhausts I have heard on an SRT are Zoomers and Corsa

    Thank You all in advance

    I've initially had Corsa's which I thought were great. But, I loved the muscle car rumble of the Zoomers and sold my Corsa's and bought the Zoomers. I absolutely love them. I would try to hear the Magnaflows for an educated decision. I think it comes down to personal preference. Good luck!

    I second Rick's opinion on the Zoomers. Although it is all personal taste.

    i have magnaflows which next to slp's are the all around loudest. some people dont like them because they want it quiet until they punch it. zoomers are quiet until you get on it, then their rhaspy as hell! if i was in the market for cat-backs, id go with slp's but thats only cuz i like the classic muscle car rumble

    Markus, I politely disagree with you on this. The Corsa's are/were quiet until WOT. Zoomers have a nice deep rumble at idle and cruising...not obnoxious though. At WOT they sound pretty much the same as my Corsa's did...which is awesome.

    I have Magnaflow on the Charger, and loved it before I deleted the mufflers. I mean loved it. Now, without the muffs, it's just obnoxious! Which makes me very happy! :)

    Also depends if you care to hear exhaust drone inside the car.

    My opinion is Corsa first and Zoomers or Bassani second.

    Zoomers and Mgnaflows are fantastic.

    First choice for just catbacks would be Zoomers.

    If you want to keep the stock exhaust, I still have my Suitcase muffler. It is youes if you pay for the shipping.

    Corsa is on my list of mods to do, and tops with zoomers for no drone per every forum post I have read.

    I've got the Zoomers and I love it, but here's what I've read and heard from other owners.

    Zoomers - great idle, you hear the car under normal acceleration, no drone from the drivers seat, might be for the backseat passengers (they never seem to hear me, haha)
    Corsa - most quiet of all these exhausts under load, but still loud at WOT
    SLP Loudmouth II - loudest I've heard so far, not sure about drone though
    Magnaflow - really loud but too much drone

    its not a catback system...but lets not forget good old flowmasters...

    i love how my car sounds with the Flowmaster super 44's and i dont even have a full 3" exhaust...i have the stock 2.75" exhaust with some flow's on it in place of the suitcase with the resonators cut off...

    mines pretty frickin loud and has lots of drone. i love it. one time some old man was driving slow as balls in front of me and pulled into the shoulder to make a right turn so i stabbed it next to him. the guy pretty much jumped out of his skin, i got a good laugh out of it. almost laughed as hard as the time milan whipped it out in front of me and asked if i thought he would need any lube with ryan.
