+1 for Fister D's. No one has ever said a bad thing, (that I know of or have seen in here) best bang for the buck, hands dow, great sound, low price. Save the rest of the money for suspension, sways, tires, pads, etc. Just my humble 02. (and thoroughly satisfied Fister customer.) Look up Fister DePietro Motorsports, ask for Darin. He is great to deal with, class act, solid work. Try u-tube for numerous vids on sound. IN you case the shipping might make it prohibitive, but it is worth a check.

I just had some Agency installed on my 996 (NA) with 44K miles. I've had it for 1.5 years and put about 20k miles on with the the OEM exhaust. It's my daily driver and I've made several trips to San Diego from Austin TX.
My OEMs had a broken baffle which baffled me daily.
Plus for Agency:
- Price was pretty decent.
- look great
- they have a nice throaty sound in 1 - 5 gears and it's not too drone-y.
- Somewhat easy to install, I didn't have the time though
Minus for Agency:
- What I loved about OEM exhaust, they sounded quiet until 45k RPM then they would let loose.
- They are on all the time.
- The car feels like it's not getting enough airflow now
- I notice a 80% reduction in H20 at startup on the driveway (I let the 996 warm up from 7 - 10 min each startup.)
I've had the Agency on for 3 weeks now and had one small trip. I'm going to try and find the OEMs new or used. Unless the fabspeeds are quiet until 45- 47K rpm, I want the original.
Know anyone who wants some agency exhaust, or has good OEMs and wants to trade, PM me.

I recently sold off my fabpseed maxflo mufflers and replaced it with fabspeed's supercup mufflers which i love! Should have just gone for the muffler bypass pipes. haha. I like it loud. Stock cans are way too quiet for its on good.
