Laser Red '01 GT

I want a cat back for my 01 GT. I know that people who have Bassani are very happy with them and their reputation is fantastic. What about Magnaflow ? I can get a Magnaflow with the Magnapack(loud) mufflers for $412 which is over $150 cheaper than the Bassani. Has anyone heard the Magnaflow and how good does it sound.Am i right in saying both mufflers are straight through and can be used with the Bassani X pipe, i've read straight throughs are ok with x pipes but not chambered mufflers. Any thoughts and info appreciated, thanks guys
