My 2006 is running Kooks LongTubes, with Kooks high flow cats into an X-pipe though stock magnaflow rear exhaust, sounds pretty good. I'll see if I can get a clip recorded in the next day or so for ya. I keep tossing around the idea of changing the rear mufflers out.

Our S197 (non Saleen, but a GT500) it stock through the cats, then have SLP loudmouths (its a pipe only, no muffler). It opens things up quite a bit.

Pypes long tubes, x pipe, high flow cats stock Saleen magnaflow. It sounds amazing.
I would recommend keeping cats. I tried without and it causes a disgusting trumpeting sound.
Note: it is stroked and aggressive cammed. Super loud. 101 decibles at idle.
The neighbors know when i drive it!

We love the JBA Xpipe with the factory Saleen / Magnaflow mufflers.
