Default Yes, I need some Exhaust Help. 96 Coupe

Ok, well I have been searching. And although I am postively sure that the information is out there. I think it's much easier, and will not be overly hard, for you guys to quickly answer all my questions.

I have a 96 EX Coupe and need to replace my muffler. When I got the car it had a Greddy EVO 3" catback system on it. Seeing as how the Axle back part of that system decided to rub against chassis until it devoloped a hole (which then got rewelded 2 more times as temporary fixes) it is now time for me to replace the exhaust.

I've decided on a spoon n1. I think it sounds decent, and http://www.randdmotorsports.com/onsale.cfm has them for $380. I also thought the smaller piping would help a little more with torque (what very little torque the engine puts out) I'm sure it won't be a very large difference, but it's got to be more of a help then the 3".

This does create a problem though. Since the Spoon is of smaller pipping, I can't mount it onto the b-pipe that I already have on the car. I have been looking, but can't seem to find any place that sells pipping (that is all ready for me to bolt up). I'd also prefer not to get raped by the muffler shop. So does anyone know of some websites that sell piping in the diameter I need (60.5mm right?). If there are options as to brands, what brand would you suggest (does it really matter?)? Anything else that I will need besides the new 60.5mm cat-back pipping, gasket, and axle back spoon n1? I can reuse the rubber bracket mounts right?

And if there are any websites that has a better price on the muffler lemme know.

Any (however short) answer would be appreciated. I know I'm coming off rather ill informed and the temptation to tell me to search is probably rather high...

On a side note as Im already making this thread it seems rather pointless to pull up the exhaust sound clip thread... The spoon n1 sounded quieter then the EVO system in the sound clips. Does this hold true in real life?

Nope. Previous owner didn't know better at the time.
