Best exhaust for the dollar?

yeah, i got a quote from midas for them to do my exhaust and they wanted like 350 to do the whole thing. i said screw it i'll do it myself. i guess i'll call around to a few different places and see if they do mandrel bends and how much it would be. otherwise i think i might go with the thermal r&d stealth cat-back. it's pricy but they make one for 5th gen 4drs and it's supposed to be a mellow sound. i don't want a super loud exhaust, which is why i was asking about a resonator. most cat-back systems have them allready in the center pipe, but a custom mandrel bent pipe wouldn't have a resonator

anyway, if anyone has any thoughts on thermal r&d i'd like to hear them or if anyone knows if it's possible to put a apexi WS exhaust for a 2dr civic onto a 4dr.

thanks,
it's great to have an informative forum such as this
