Lots of opnions on this, but most everyone agrees that the Flowmaster, at least for the 4th gen stock style exhaust, barely flows better than stock. Sounds nice, but not so good at flow.
Almost all the other mufflers flow better, from what I've read Flowmasters will gain about 5 HP over stock, and others about 5 more than that.

Flowmaster
Borla
Magnaflow
GMMG
Borla
Corsa

Hooker is also known to be one of the best flowing designs as well. Sounds great and has little to no rasp.

The only issue with SLP, from what I have read being here, is their headers hang too low. I run an SLP Loudmouth 1 catback with their PowerFlo X-pipe. I am quite happy. If you want to run a close to straight-pipe system, the SLP LM-1 is the way to go.

It's all about what you like. Performance differences are next to nil when you funnel it all down a single 3" pipe.
I personally like the optional 3" SLP dual/dual setup with their transverse muffler, not obnoxious sounding and works as well as any other 3" aftermarket system. Only other single catback I consider is Mufflex, and the only dual setup I consider is Bassani.
