3 Dollars huh?

go to Wal-Mart, get their top of the line hack saw (should be less than 3 bucks ;) and cut the header in half and remove the rest, wont sound like a lawn mower at least, maybe miniature funny car :)

check out eBay I guess, I go on and type in "eclipse exhaust" and look through the listings, I"ve heard Megan racing makes some decent stuff for a reasonable price.

I would suggest a Magnaflow. It has a rich deep tone. Not a universal by any means!! Get it custom made for you, I got mine installed for $350, and it's awesome. Though when it is cold, reving it up to over 3 grand it will sound like a weed wacker at first, once it warms up and gets really hot, thats when the deep tone comes out.

Borla is also good, but it is VERY loud and obnoxious. It is a twist between Magnaflow and weed wacker sounds. I heard with my own ears when mine was getting installed. Go with Magnaflow, you will NOT be dissapointed at all!

well if you want something that has a nice deep tone, and is fairly quiet.. i'd just save yr money a lil longer and go with something like the APEX-i N1 catback, its got a great deep tone, yet is still quiet, does not sound like a supercharged lawnmower.. lol.. the magnaflow and borela is fine if you would rahter just go with something right away, but juts my opinion to wait and get a better exhaust. just my .02 tho=)

i had the N1 and now I have the Greddy EVO. The Greddy is awsome!!! The N1 sounded like ass IMO. I would definitely save your money though. The EVO has a nice deep tone!

ewww u like the greddy over the apexi??? damn i guess different opinions... i had the evo and it was a piece of crap... my N1 sounds way better and the welds dont break like they did on my greddy.
