if you just want it loud go for a custom exhaust from a similar place to powerflow.

Ashley competition exhausts sound nice, phone them and get a custom one for half the price of a magnex. Tell them you want it loud too. If you want proper loud then theres a place called freeflow exhausts near me who put a straight pipe from the manifold then weld a backbox arround it so it looks like its legal. They are only about £60 as well, but keep your old exhaust for MOT's. I dunno their number but you could 118 it. Freeflow, Bo'mains Ind Est, Linlithgow Road, Bo'ness, Scotland, EH510QG

You can get pritty much any backbox for ur car and remove the centre box [silencer] and you will get a nice meaty sound. Id adivse leaving the cat in place though for legal reasons.
So get a scorpion/magnex/ashley back box, remove the centre box and get it replaced with a straight through pipe and bada boom skyline tunage...almost 
My maye just bought a ashley backbox for his car, it sounded quieter then his original back box + hole...so we tore off the centre box and replaced it with a straight through pipe, nows its a bit too loud. But serves its purpose.
All in all the ashley back box cost him £75 to have it fitted was £25.oo and to have the centre box removed at the same time and replaced was another £25.00 so all in all it cost about £50.00 plus the price of the back box. Not bad huh? you could always fit it yourself it u have the tools to do so.

Sebring backbox with Sebring straight through centre section, it'll work out cheaper than any other Stainless steel full system, inlcuding powerflow. U2U me if you want a price
