I recently went to AAA and I was quoted $900 for a MS Catback with a hiFlow CAT.
Was $1300 for a Stainless Catback with HiFlow CAT.

Just spoke to AAA, $650 for ms with a resonator and a Lukey muffler. Anyone have experience with Lukey Race Magnum muffler? That's what he recommended.
I'm leaning towards AAA simply because they're so close and I'll be able to leave the car with them for the day.

You can buy whatever cat you want for around $150 on ebay. The less cells the more hi flow it is. ie 100 cell cat will flow more than a 200 cell cat.

I had Everlast Mufflers do my system in mild steel for $1300 2.5 front pipes, hi flow cat 3 back with resonator and oval chrome muffler, really needs 2 resonators but price and clearance very good
Booked my car in for next Tuesday to get a 3" MS mandrel bent cat-back, one resonator and a Lukey race muffler at AAA. Will see how it sounds, but by what others are saying it sounds like it'll need another resonator added.
Can't wait!

Need 2 or it will drone bad:/ maybe even 2 straight through mufflers, I was even thinking twin 2 1/4 pipes from diff back??
Just got back from AAA. He was doing a stainless system on a Forester today and as it takes time to change for the bender to adjust the pressure going from a stainless bend to a mild steel one, they offered me to change to a stainless set up for only an extra 100 bucks. So I'm getting a SS 3" cat back for only $750. So I'm pretty happy with that.
Picked it up this afternoon. I told Jim (the installer) to make it look OEM as possible. So he got in an oval like tip for it. Welds look good, it's nice and high (probably a smidgen higher than factory). To the sound, it has a nice rumble. Lower than I expected it to be which is a pleasant surprise, not tinny at all. It isn't annoying at the common speeds I travel at (50 and 60). He put quite a long hot dog on it, so that'll help. I'm expecting it to get a little louder once it wears in a bit.
Can definitely feel the difference in the power delivery. Much smoother, it doesn't feel like it dies off so much after 4,500rpm, but it feels less power at 2,500 - 3,500. So it seems to have spread the torque more across the range.
I'll take some photos and maybe a video of the sound tomorrow afternoon and chuck them on my car thread.

Sounds good Taylor, will be interested in the pictures to get a perspective on how it turned out; possibly in the market now for a new exhaust system
