Welcome to the boards!
Like you, I also wanted to do something with my exhaust, but didnt have the money for a full catback. So after much thinking, I went with the Mazdaspeed Axleback.
The best place to buy it new, and where I bought mine, is Mazdastuff.com. It is $150, and when I ordered in December, I was NOT charged shipping, so the grand total was a mere $149.00. You might want to email them and make sure shipping is still free, since it seems they quite a shipping charge, but they quoted one with me as well when I bought it, and I was not charged for it.
Installation is dead simple, you can trust me on that. I had never done anything under a car before this, and aside from battling rust (which WD40 took care of nicely) i had the old one off and new one on in a matter of 20 minutes.
Oh, and I really dig the sound as well. It is significantly louder than the stock, but its not the obnoxious kind of loud, either. Its deeper, throatier, and much more aggressive than the stock. People outside the car will notice, but not cringe and roll their eyes like when a teenager in a civic rolls by.
I don't really notice any droning, and its nicer than listening to our little engine rev so high while accelerating or driving fast.
I would highly recommend it for the price.
