Remus or Magnaflow are the two main brands I've seen members get here 
I do know that the magnaflow quad set up caused a power loss as well, not sure about the remus quad set up....
here's a nice thread on the subject of quads...

I believe AKAlius (Phi) initally considered Remus before deciding to go with his custom Magnaflow set-up.
Check out AKAlius and nasty50's quad exhaust set-up:

The Magnaflow power-loss being discussed are mostly attributed to V8 engines installing the bolt-on Magnaflow mufflers.

cheapest would probably be a custom magnaflow setup. 
Elaborate
