$2k has a lot of options... personally for less than that I would go with an all Japanese made system consisting of APEXi resonated midpipe and Tanabe axle back combo. $855+$740=$1595
PPE makes nice stuff too and here in the US... but that JDM OEM level craftsmanship with the hollow hangers and all is hard to match.
APEXi N1 midpipe
Tanabe axle back - another 5% is possible here too with junk email coming down to 740ish

I just gave you direct links to them... the great part about APEXi midpipe is you can add it with the stock axle-back, see how you like the sound, then add the Tanabe if you want more on top of that.
There are quite a few vids of the resonator/cat deletes that get you close to the my suggested setup sound if you search the forum, with plenty of invidia clips as well out here... frankly if you want a good sound without huge volume the setup I listed or the Invidia Catback are excellent bang for the buck. If you want more obnoxious or drone or a different configuration than stock, look at the more wide open setups, or if you want to spend more than $2k, there is a whole other list. The full APEXi with the four cans out back is over the $2000 mark at most places, but there's that option out there with a quick google search to find a purchase place.

You can delete the resonators on Invidia and still retain the high quality/refinement and get more loudness and pitch out of the exhaust.

Here's Kevin's video of both me and Barry's RC-F with the ARK installed.
After this, I deleted the middle resonators (ARK has two sets - the standard and the Helmholt) and it made the exhaust loud enough with the same tone. The Helmholtz resonators help tune the sound and reduce drone from what I'm told and even after the delete, the drone is almost non existent still.

I have the Apexi resonated mid pipe with the stock mufflers. It's awesome, no drone but what is really nice is I notice more low end torque maybe because of the H design. When you get on it the sound is amazing on the outside but not overbearing in the car.
