Thermal Research makes an effecient system and you can choose the classic muffler, or the reverse cone which is quieter. There is a sound clip on here somewhere if you search on thermal.

greddy is good..but is loud...
get something that's with a silencer or something.
maybe tanabe should be a good one..
but expensive

Tanabe is also loud even with the silencer. I would go with GReddy but if u want something quiter that will still get u noticed get the DC TCS, it sounds nice and deep not really really loud though,

ok man......i did all this research about 7 months ago, like 4 days after i bought my car....i talked to TONSSSSSSS of people, and finally decided to buy the dc sports (my friend had it on his 95 gsr, and OMG it sounded so perfect).....so a few weeks later i had it installed, and i couldn't be HAPPIER.......it is just loud enough to get attention, but when you are cruising it mellows out, and doesnt give you a headach..plus its DEEP AS HELL!

save your money, and spend it on the dc sports.....PLUS IT LOOKS COOLER THEN ANY OTHER EXHAUST......

you will be happy if you go for the best!

oh, and it def made a nice power increase, specially in the top end [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Did you combine it with the DC Sports headers or do you plan to?

So dc all the way? ...... I have a question, what would the downside be of buying a cheaper exhaust like ractive or obx?
