after market exhuast
I decided to ditch the CAI idea, and just focus on the exhaust, I have a hard time trying to find parts for the 3.4 L I was looking into getting a cat back exhaust, and maybe a high flow cat, I just dont want it to sound like a Civic lol
any suggestions ?

Whichever muffler you decide on is totally up to you.....yes, some flow better than others, but go with what sounds best to your ears - muffler tone is a very subjective thing.
Pacesetter makes a cat-back exhaust which includes everything, but they seem to be in short supply. The piping is 2.5", which is recommended for performace.
Borla also makes a complete cat-back, but is all stainless steel and therefore much more expensive. Also the piping is a slightly smaller 2.25".
Pipe size really doesn't matter until you get over 215HP or so (or if you plan on forced induction/nitrous).

I just checked out the video for the 80 flowmaster website, it was a video of a Toyota MR2, if they can make a four cylinder sound like that, dang, Do you have a video of your alero with that muffler ?

pacesetter exhaust sounds AWESOME on a 3400.....sounds like ASS on a 2.2 and 2.4. Its not a stainless steel exhaust so expect it to rust out in about 2-3 years if you drive it year round and have nasty winters. My exhaust hangers rusted out
