what exhaust set up to go with?

I need some idea for a nice exhaust setup for my fd, I noticed the other thread about waking up neighbors and while I dont mind doing that the cops in my area already know me well from past cars and tickets. A little backround is I am running the apexi rx6 single, with ss midpipe and an apexi dunk exhaust. I want to tone it down without performance loss, the setup I have is just ridiculous, what do you guys run, or what would u suggest for a system?

I suggest a single ehxuast using 3.25" mandrel bent piping and one large muffler at the end. Maybe a presilencer if you want to tone it down a bit.
That's it. No cats or duals or any crap like that.
It's going to be loud though, but the results would be amazing.

Racing Beat Dual tip cat back and some kinda high flow cat. I'll trade you my high flow cat for your midpipe.

I may be bias, but the PFS cat back is definitely butter.

i have a racing beat.. it's great!! it's low noise when just driving.. when you punch her.. the exhaust just growls. it's great. the best of both worlds.

I have the GReddy PE on my car right now and I also have the Racing Beat dual tip. Both are similar in noise at idle and cruising but the GReddy is a little louder at WOT and there is a noticable difference in performance between the two.

The Racing Beat Dual is the best way to go. Performance, great sound and it looks nice too.

I second the notion for the PFS exhaust. It had a nice tone at idle and wot

HKS Downpipe
VRSEXHAUST.COM midpipe w/ muffler
HKS Carbon Ti Exhaust

the muffler in the midpipe definitely makes the whole car quiet. its louder than stock of course.. but deep and throaty. i dont like loud exhausts and mine dosent bother me a bit.
