8v?
get a decent full system such as a scorpion or mongoose & dont be looking at removing centre silencers, this just gives the car a shite sound
all full s/s systems are pretty decent sounding, sebring are quieter than most though

wrong!!
an exhaust is at its loudest when its new as there is no carbon deposits on the exhaust. so after 3 mths or so it will quieten down as carbon builds up

ur exhaust will not be louder after 3 mths
when your exhaust is bedded in, is when it is fully coated in carbon deposits

Try and stretch your budget for a full Stainless system. It will be worth it in the long run, trust me.

Ive just got a stainless back box on mine (magnex) with a standard system and janspeed mild steel de-cat.
Only worth getting rest of system stainless if your gonna keep the car over 4 years!
Get a stainless backbox though as it looks a lot better!
The piper slash cut looks well mint!
Have never heard of an exhaust getting quieter! Every1 i know has had there exhaust get louder!
