Custom is going to be your only option. No one makes an off the shelf performance exhaust kit for the AWD Vibe\Matrix.

Search for a competent muffler shop in your area and they should be able to make what ever you need.

Here's another thread on this subject :D

Actually Magnaflow makes a nice aftermarket catback system for the '09 and '10 Vibe AWD and Matrix. I had one on my '10 and it was perfect in my humble opinion. I bought it and had it shipped for under $500. Sound was only slightly louder than stock and it used all the factory hangers and mounts. You can check out the photos of it on my garage page.

As I said in your Garage thread...

Be sure to use the link on their homepage (Get Coupons!) to receive a discount code. Let them know what part/s you want and they’ll send you a discount code to use at checkout. I ended up paying right around $440.00 shipped last July. I have the Magnaflow system on my GT and love it. It sounds great. Only slightly louder than stock unless you really step on the gas. It fits and looks great too.
Definitely be sure to check out the pictures of it installed on csxt8058's 2009 AWD Vibe. As he posted, he too was very happy with the fit and sound.

Hott Exhaust! You won't find a better price on Magnaflow products. Trust me... I did a lot of research before buying the Magnaflow catback for my Vibe from them last summer. As soon as I have the money, I will be buying the Magnaflow catback for my mom's Vibe from them. Excellent place for sure!
