Any owners of a Magnaflow exhaust out there? It's an all stainless system for around $400. I't looks like the tips can be cut off so they are hidden up underneath

I've got one.
The quality is top notch. To be honest, I thought the install hardware and hangers were better quality then the borla system I installed on my T/A.
The pluses: Performance wise, the magnaflow is about the best you are going to get. The muffler is a perfed core, straight thru. Also, the muffler serves as an x-pipe. The exhaust winds up being a true dual setup with the muffler acting as a cross over pipe as well.
The negatives: Its a little on the LOUD side. It sounds great, but at cruise there is a pretty big drone.
My solution: I wound up tuning the system. I installed car chemistry exhaust inserts on the output side of the muffler. This made the sound perfect.
All in all, a very good deal, but a little loud.

yes i also found a magnaflow exhaust system for 420$ and was wondering about it also...I have a 2003 black H2, and i think im am going to purchase it, would it be the best way to go rather than to spend 800$ on a corsa or borla?

What the above owner stated is exactly what I do not want. The drone sound. I have the Corsa on my vette and it does not resonate or drone. I'm leaning towards the Corsa Touring system.

Although not on a H2 I have a pal with one on his 4runner and it is much louder than I expected and on the freeway it is unbearable, (sounds like a rice rocket) at least to me, as stated above the drone is pretty overwhelming. I was going to have a system put on my own, but this made me go another route.

I did some investigating and decided to buy the XtremeFlow Muffler with Air Intake for $679.99
How could you argue with 40 HP + 2MPG! 
At least that's what they claim.

I'm also looking to improve the performance of my H2 without adding a supercharger. What about just adding headers and exhaust. any comments.
