i would go with the X-TEC XRS mufflers, they look nice and supposedly perform very well.

when you get the XRS mufflers make sure to get the one with the longer tip, they look great, the stubby ones are ok but the longer tipped ones look better i think

A'PEX'i N1...hands down. The only other catback I would recommend over the N1, would be the A'PEXi GT series due to it's stainless construction. But the purple coating on both of my N1's has yet to even discolor, let alone start to come off. One catback has been on for 1 year, and the other for 2 1/2 years. And when you get to fire throwing stages, the N1 lets it out wuite nicely =)

If you want to do a custom setup, I have an Apex 2.5" in, 4" tip (or maybe it's a 3.5" tip), Stainless muffler to sell - $100 shipped if you want it. I was going to use it on my 86 Sport, but sold the car before I had it done.

On my Turbo I have an X-Tec, and it does rock. They're about $350 though.
