Default Exhaust help

What goin on. I need some help.

Ive decided Ive had enough of my knockoff Apexi mufflers. The performace for the sound just inst enough. I realize that as far as exhaust go, this car isnt really gonna perform all that great by changing the mufflers, but Im not expecting it to. I just want it to be a little more quiet in the cab as well as outside.

The thing is, I have been dying to hear peoples opinions. What does the magnaflow mufflers sound like on the GS. I know Bryan has some, or had, not sure, and I know El Captain has some.
If you read this Bryan, how was the sound in the cabin? Loud? What else did you have, just the mufflers or a whole new cat-back setup?
The thing is, I dont have any silencers..well, one in place of my second cat..God bless Texas right?
Anyway, anyone else chime, let me know how your exhaust is setup, how loud it is, and wether or not you like it.

As for my exhaust,its stock but I had the resonators removed.I did it just for the sound.not for any hp gain,that's for later when I boost it.but the sound is mellow and deep.kind of like a stock 350Z.

No kidding,when my car was on the lift I looked at the pipes,and I said damn that's small.you'd figure with a 2jz it should be bigger.oh well.I plan to buy a Junction Produce exhaust system sometime next year.

I dont have the stock exhaust. I have a custom header back exhaust at the moment, 3" midpipe, 3" resonator, 3" to 2.5" y-pipe to 2.5" daul back to the apexi N1 knockoffs.
I used to have just removed resonators, and yeah, it sounded pretty good, but I got the exhaust last year because I had planned to be turbo by now, but money problems arose.
