If you plan on modding the xpipe in the future and you don't like a raspy exhaust, I would buy an axle back system rather than the oem mod or straight pipes. Some have used magnaflow mufflers and made a custom axle back system with good results, but I would be weary of unbranded mufflers off craigslist.

I actually bought these same mufflers and got custom pipe done at a local reputable shop here in LV. It sounds Great. No rasp at all.

I'll get a sound clip and pix shortly.
