Kyball,
We, (the guys) running Invidia pipes, w/F Sport exhaust and intake forget to say...sure it's loud, but thats because we gun it off the line and/or running at high RPM.
If you are easy on the pedal, always keeping her below 3500RPM...she will purr lilke an F Sport exhaust kitten only.
Sound is a high pressure wave front through a medium (such as air, or a liquid such as water, or a solid), wherein the wave front is followed by a reciprocal pressure differential behind it. Sound is produced when something disturbs the medium and sets in motion the molecules in the medium.
In english, the less pressure you apply, the less sound it will produce.

Nothing to worry about...you're going to enjoy the sound.
Like I said, just go easy on the pedal if you do not want to hear the lion roar.
Look forward to hearing your feedback.

My friend has the Megan Racing Header and Downpipe on his 06 Civic Si for about 4-6 months and the hanger just broke and the shop found a hole in his header. Speaking of quality, Megan racing is really HIT AND MISS.
For the ISX50, I would go with Invidia over Megan racing. I myself have the Invidia midpipe for over a year and I am still happy with it. Many S2000 owners have Invidia exhaust systems and G37/370Z and they all have said many good things about the quality/fitment/durability. Just my 2 cents.
If you feel Megan Racing is better than Invidia, I dont have a problem with that and by all means go with Megan Racing. I guess it's really personal preference.

I have the megan midpipe and the tanabe axleback and I ahvent bought the headers yet because im afraid it will ruin the sound. It sunds great becuase its pretty quiet under noral driving and hwy. but when you get on it its sweet, combined witht he fsport intake as well. invidia sounds to me (videos) like its louder and a little raspy.
as far as looks, both hks and fsport look more agressive than the tanabe

well i personally have heard f-sport, HKS, and megan all IN PERSON, huuuge difference. and everyones about right, although megan has the loudest/deepest drone around 3k, HKS is very close to it (same canister type) so they are both loud, megan is just deeper. fsport i really didnt like, i didnt even wanna test drive it. IMO its too quite at low rmp and to raspy at high rpm. Not to rain on your parade, im sure im in the minority and im biased since i have megan
