Arrow Looking for an Exhaust

I am thinking of getting a Magnaflow straight through on my 98 es300, im looking for a loud a deep sound, but im trying to stay away from those annoying ricer sounds, does anyone have any suggestions on an exhaust?

I have a straight thru Magnaflow exhaust, click on the link below my sig banner and that will take you to my thread on my car. It shows how it looked when I bought it from my sister to how it looks now. Somewhere in the middle of thread is a pic of the Magnaflow exhaust from their website and a pic of how it looks on my car. The sound is deep, but not ricer sounding. I did also remove the resonator to achieve this sound. On the youtube vids, mine sounds more like the second vid, but dont know if that person removed the resonator or not. Good luck bro.

Best advice is take it to a muffler shop and have them remove the resonator and they will cut it out and replace it by welding the same diameter pipe in place of where the resonator was at. Same goes for the OEM exhaust, they will cut off the old muffler and weld on the new Magna Flow exhaust.

Nope, flex pipe is located off the exhaust manifold......and the resonator is between the Cat. Converter and the muffler.
