do you have the apexi ws2? Cause if you do thats about as anti-rice sounding as you can get.

ok, well i recommend buying a apexi ws2 muffler and then have a muffler shop weld it on. Thats prolly going to be your cheapest and best option. Or you could get a twin loop muffler. There are a few members on here who have one and love it. Has a nice sound, check out some sound clips on youtube so you can get an idea of what the different exhausts/mufflers.

^+1, yeah greddy sp2 or apex'i ws2

low deep tones and sounds nice as higher rpms without getting raspy. I don't know why there's not more exhausts like it.

you can blame that on the fast and furious lol. I bet exhaust companies will start to move away from the loud circular exhausts and offer more quieter oem looking exhausts as thats what the market is demanding right now.

Tanabe Super medallion Hyper spec. That is nice.

Any oval shaped muffled (or twinloop) will give you a performance sound.

Coffee can shaped mufflers sound like fart cannons.
