Quiet Exhaust System

Allright, I am getting ready to put buy a mid-pipe, but I want to buy a cat-back with it.

Question is: Which Cat-Back can I expect to be the quietest out of all those available. I just don't want to attract any more attention than I have to with my exhaust - but I want the benefits of no-midpipe.

I know it will be loud, but I want to keep it down as much as possible.

I have a PFS and I was wondering where that fit into the scheme of things? Is it louder or quieter than the M2 or Apex N1? Thanks for any feedback.

Loudest ever! i have a 3" high flow and i'm thinking about buying ear plugs for driving... kills my head after awhile... i've been pulled over before because of it, but i told the cop i was just passing through the state so he'd leave me alone.

Which exhausts have an oval tip. I went to the Long Beach Grand Prix this past weekend and this Black R1 comes next to us (I was in my uncles Miata and not my FD) then he looks at us and punches it. The exhaust sounded good, not loud at all just a low grumble. All I know is that it was non canister and had a oval tip. I wish I knew what it was 'cuse it sounded good, I had the top down so I heard it very clearly.

I did a quick search and found the Tanabe G Power Medalion to be pretty quiet, it looks like the one I saw on the Black R1 im not sure though. This is what the Racing Works site said
The Tanabe G Power Medalion produces a deep, powerful exhaust tone. Designed with a straight-through muffler and oversized mid pipe, you will notice power gains of 8-20 horsepower. The mid pipe is 60mm for N/A and 80mm for Turbo Engines
Does that mean It also replaces my Mid Pipe also?

The Greddy Power Extreme is quiet but sounds like a wet fart when you get down on it.
