Yea, #1 is performance based, #2 is more for aesthetics.

Actually, single for top end performance and dual is for low to mid end performance

I would go with the HKS! They sound amazing on Supra TT's, and I'm sure it'll sound great on an SC.

i don't recommend the IS300 exhaust. It's too narrow for a single exit. The HKS Ti was designed for the AS200 RS200 Altezza in Japan, which is a high revving 4 cylinder. They sell the same exhaust here in the US for IS300s but they are still 60mm.
