If you want one with a good deep sound and not too louder or quiet, I think Racing Beat is going to be your best bet. I think the N1's will be too loud. Also, try the RB from section with custom pipes going to Borla's, I've heared good things about that setup.

Personally I have the RB true duals, and Jason currently has full RB collected. The collected sounds a bit more Honda, but is still extremely sweet. True duals on the other hand, sound EXTREME.

Idle, up to about 2.5k, its nice and quiet.

Above that / WOT...omg, the beast comes to LIFE.

Best sounding exhaust for NA IMO.

I've got the full RB setup (stock manifold) and it sounds very nice. The noise level is just aout perfect. At first I wished it'd been louder, but now I think it's perfect, as if it was any louder it'd be a real pain for long trips, but it still gives a nice loud noise at higher rpm's when you step on it. It has a nice sound to it that's very smooth with no raspyness. With a header I've heard that it can sound like there's a pack of angry bees under the hood, but not with the stock manifold. The nice thick piping on the RB system does a good job keeping the raspyness to a minimum and I think it's wonderful.
