is Alta Catback Exhuast Worth 500$?? need opinions

So i have a DOS intake which is absolutely beautifull , and i wanted a nice exhuast to make the sound even nicer
and my budget isnt very much , i got just enough for the alta catback exhuast


Its 500$, And says it will give me 10whp

in your guys's opinion is it worth changing my stock?
and will i get a nicer/louder sound from it?

P.S - Theres another catback exhuast worth 735 dollars, its dual tip, you think i should save up for that?

If you want more power go with a downpipe.

Get a downpipe from anyone but alta. obx,riss,supersprint,waymotorworks,exhaust depot downpipes will have more sound than that overpriced junk.

500 DOLLARS FOR A MUFFLER AND A CHROME TIP
