As far as power, there isn't much of a difference between stock and aftermarket. Unless you get a catless midpipe, or high flow cat, the exhaust won't do much.

I've heard a lot of good things about Racing Beats products... At least they are honest about their claims.

I prefer racing beat. I've heard and seen a couple of others and am much more impressed with my Racing Beat intake/exhaust. That's just my .02 though.

I'll give you a word of advice on this. My SR midpipe failed after about 2 years. I just purchased a RP supercat (arrived yesterday), and it looks pretty good, very well made. Just like it says above though... search through the Aftermarket Performance section for more information.
