It sounds like you want a complete exhaust system, like I did. I went with the AA downpipe+turbo-back for a few reasons:

-4" downpipe mates perfectly to their exhaust system
-Their exhaust replaces EVERYTHING past the DP
-Factory H-pipe is replaced by an X-pipe (flows better, sounds better)
-AA mufflers are deep, leave no drone whatsoever, but burbles when letting off the throttle and pops between WOT shifts

I haven't seen any other FULL exhaust systems offered by anyone short of Akrapovic, it's mostly just axle-backs. Custom stuff usually never sounds as good as a shop that built a whole system from the ground up and has had the time to tweak it to their liking
