Exhaust Question

I finally broke down and bought me a ford truck.A 95 Eddie Bauer w/only 68k miles.I have drooled over my dads 78 f-100 for years.Just the rumble of those pipes used to give me chills. Anyway, I'm trying to do a few mods, and of course i want that rumble.Don't get me wrong, the 302 sounds good, but no chills.I was wondering what your opinions on a dual rear exit catback system are. I would like to keep it under $400. Any opinions on brands and pricing would be appreciated.And if anyone has used the tornado system in their vehicles, I would like to know if it is worth the money, especially since my truck requires two.
Thanks

Skip the Tornado. Before you look for cat-back kits, check with your local muffler shop to see how much the'd charge you to make a cat-back system with a couple 2 chamber Flowmasters. Usually cheaper and will give you the rumble you're looking for.

Momudder's got a good point. I bet you can get the exhaust custom bent to route how "you" want it and two flowmasters installed for $400.00 or less. Check it out. Make sure they weld all the way around the tubes...NOT JUST WHAT THEY CAN SEE!!!!
