    So a couple weeks ago my exhaust broke, and I had someone weld it up for me. But is not gonna last forever and i've been wanting to do something with it so might as well do it now. since its not going to b necessary toreplace this part of the exhaust, should I get a downpipe and kind a cheap cat back, or speed daddys and stock center muffler. And also I need new rear mufflers anyway because of rust, so that will go on either way. I'm looking for cost effective and best setup also. Here is the pic of what needs to be replaced before it was welded.

    Go with Speed Daddys. For the catback, have a muffler shop repair what is needed. They should charge much less that a bolt in catback.

    People say Borla XS mufflers sound best. Keep the resonator.

    the muffler shop I went to said it was the center muffler, is that the same thing? Is that what I ask for to be replaced or is that the resinator, or same thing ha. Thanks

    center muffler? i think he means the resonator. but that picture isn't of the resonator, that break in the pipe is right before the actual muffler, correct?

    ya he must just call it that then I thought it was a resonator, right under the center console. so I am then going w/ speed daddy s, aftermarket res? Then stock y tube (does it matter?) And then like I said I need new mufflers of my choice I guess.
