HKS! highly recommend the silencers tho...it's a night and day difference inside the car...the drone is a LOT lower...HUGE difference.
plus the power band is practically the same with or without the silencer...it's a winner!
i used to think it's too big but it completely grew on me

I would go for Lexus HKS exhaust. I love mine! No drone at all. You will not get that with any exhaust except maybe tanabe. Only problems is that they stopped selling them when the F-sport came out. Its tough to find one now a days and they hold their value since they don't make them anymore.

GReddy's are great. They sound fantastic and don't sound ricey at all. And to be honest, the whole HP gain from having exhaust is so minuscule and unnoticeable that determining your decision on that is not best idea.

Thanks for all the feedback. After spending some more time on YouTube (for what that's worth) listening to the different systems, I think I'm leaning toward the Tanabe Medalion Touring or the GReddy SP2. Both have a pleasing low-end rumble at idle and slow speed to go along with impressive high notes when you step into it. Couldn't get a feel if one or the other allows more "drone" into the cabin, however. Both are about the same price and the HP gains are secondary to me. Decisions, decisions...
