what is "agressive exhaust note." My crappy glasspacks are agressive sounding - but LOUD.

The HKS on the other car is deep throat sounding - and slighly lound.

I'd go with deep throat and not coffey can sounding

Just buy the cans and have a muffler shop run the pipe. Spend the money you saved on something else.
