What is a good full cat-back exhaust that doesn't break the bank?

As far as exhausts go, I think the Dinan sounds the best but it's only a muffler and costs an arm and a leg, what are some good cat back options for us that are more affordable for casuals like myself?

Miltek exhaust, probably the cheapest catback you can get. Sounds great imo

For 1820$ including shipping you can get a Remus from **********s.com

I personally think that Remus quality is better than Miltek, Scorpion, Cobra, AWE ect. The sound is also very nice.

Made in Austria

This one is right in my price range and definitely has a good sound, do you know where these ship from? Seems they are made in England? And who do you think is a good reputable retailer that stocks these?

Search Awe on here. There are a couple vendors in the commercial classifieds that have them discounted for members. I forget exactly how much, but it's less than 1900.

I’m not too sure to be honest. I’ve just been looking for them online and finding a good price so I know how much to save. Haven’t gotten that far yet lol
