Haven't heard one of those. Not being a tanabe whore but I've heard a lot of good things about 'em. They're kinda expensive but there definately worth it.
I have an Apexi WS and I love it. Not loud-as-f**k-hear-you-from-a-mile-away-exhaust. Its got a nice deep tone but not loud til WOT. sounds like some other higher end cars do stock IMO. I like it
Magnaflow all the way,and it cheap to, its a good clean sound, very deep, heres some links someone sent to me here when I had question about the system
APEXi N1......HKS hi-power......GReddy EVO/EVO II......Tanabe.......RS*R......those are the top of the line exhaust according to what you're lookin' for. Each one of those companies make a sleeper like exhaust as well, if you decide later on that you wanna go that route. Personally i prefer APEXi because of the quiet cruisin' and the loud roar from VTEC and up....you kinda get the best of both worlds
greddy has the really ricer tone to it if im thinking of the right one. go with either tanabe, or raiactive. pretty sure i spelt that wrong but some one will correct me im sure.
if greddy has a ricer tone then what the hell does apex have its twice as loud my friends apexi n1 you i can hear from inside my house while he is atleast a mile away no joke
Go to planetperformance.com, I got my magnaflow full STAINLESS STEEL catback off there. ITs cheap it was only like 400 shipped. I needed stainless cause i live in MI. It sounds amazing.
I got a dc sports catback...nice and quiet but you can hear a bit of a rumble when u step on it a bit...got tired of having a loud ass exhaust...funny thing is i havent been pulled over since.
