Default Magnaflow or Ractive

I am a person on a budget and cant decide between these two . A Magnaflpw street series the new polished ones with tips (price round $110) or a Ractive polished muffler with tip (I can get it for around $80 new) . I want some thing that will sound good but not ricey . Something Deeper but noticible would be awesome . Please dont tell be to buy Apexi.... cause I dont have the money . I ony want tsomething that will imporve performance (I know a muffler alone wont do much) and I want it to sound good . thanx

If you want better performance just wait and save your money a catback is so much better. I love my DC sports and it has a great deep tone, not at all ricey.

i'd get a mangnaflow resonator, and just a tip.

sounds good
and super cheap.

that es oval muffler looks dumb, but it's not my car, not my choice.
