I've heard that axle-back exhausts, like the HKS and the HP J-Spec, will give you a slightly deeper sounds and its not too loud. Plus they just bolt on.

I have the Tanabe R Spec. It's been dynoed to show the greatest gains for our car. It's a nice low sound. It comes with a silencer if you want it to be more quiet. But I love the rumble of it.
My exhaust sound clips:
Tanabe R Spec exhaust from the side
Tanabe R Spec exhaust from the center rear
Tanabe R Spec exhaust flyby

Rep Power: 0 dc sports tcs system (cat-back, i dunno if they have an axle back or not) is nice and deep and not ricey sounding at all. it isnt super loud either so it wont drown out your music or the passenger next you trying to tell you something.
