Universal Exhaust or Not

I want to get a new exhaust on my car, but I don't have that much of money to buy a new after market one. So I am thinking of getting a universal exhaust? Can anyone fill me in with detail for their car. Or is there other choices that I can have

that's what I did

I got the 3.5 x 9...and they look pimp...no point in an exhaust unless you want the noise...

Universal exhausts look cheap and are loud as hell. If you don't have that much money go for the 3A tips like suggested above... and if you want noise you can remove the resonators of the mufflers to make it louder.

Well, that is what I am aiming for, a deep noise, because I've seen my friend's Remus, and it really kicks ass, that is why I am thinking of changing one
