    Are you talking Flowmaster? If so, there's only one that will fit in the stock location. The 80 series.

    Nothing really, that will fit into the stock catback system that is.

    Best bet is to do an entire catback system that will change the I-pipe to a more common 3" size, and a more common 2 1/2" tailpipe size, which in turn opens up your muffler options.

    If doing a catback though you could choose any sound you want. Loudest I guess would be the loud mouth system from SLP which uses a bullet muffler in the I-pipe (no crossflow muffler in the back).

    There are some loud cross flow muffler setups too depending on the sound you are looking for. Some you can check are Magnaflow, Pypes, Hooker, Flowmaster. For more noise (and more HP) you can increase the pipe diameters too along with a race style muffler which is all made by Mufflex, or choose from Magnaflow/Spintech/Flowmaster mufflers to change the sound a bit.

    For a true dual system there are dumps before the rearend that make tons of noise, or go with a dual system out the back from Kooks or Bassanni. Simply tons of options......

    I think swapping to a whole 3" set up would be best. Borla is great, just so expensive unless you come across a good used one.

    Had the loud mouth 1 on stock before, it wasn't too bad, but now have the GMMG and won't go back to anything else, but it is pricey

    In my opinion the Loudmouth 1 sounds the best on an otherwise stock car (stock manifolds & cats). It's the only system you'll actually be able to hear going down the road except for maybe an open Borla. A friend of mine had GMMG with manifolds and cats and it was very quiet.
