Default Which to choose?

First, what up ya'll. Here's my problem, i am having to have my car smogged shortly. I dont know what exhaust to get, but it has to pass smog. I have the stock piping on it right now but i took off the muffler from the back axle. So it is loud and annoying as hell right now. My three choices. Which would u choose......

----HKS Hiper Exhaust- I can get the cannister for 2 bills, then i would do custom piping

----Apexi N1- Heard it's loud and annoying after a while, but it looks tight

----Tanabe Racing Medallion-Looks sweet and it sounds good

By the way, this is going on a 88 Rex Si, 2 1/4 inch piping with High Flow Cat

One More Question......

Go with a resonator or not, i dont want it to sound shitty like some, sorry for the confusion. Thanks. Need opinions quickly.

to pass smog you may not want that hiflo cat, other than that it's entirely up to your tastes.

honestly those are all going to be cop magnets, i used to have a tanabe look alike and man i got looks and got followed all the time by cops.

ok back on topic, the route i went (going through smog this weekend) is i went with 2" piping with a new stock cat back to a turbo muffler that is mounted like stock, with a 2.25 pipe coming off the muffler to the stock position on the bumper, nice and quiet, not noticeable by cops, but once i get on it holy **** it just growls, doesnt get buzzy what so ever.

"matt who needs to figure out a way to keep the head cool during smog."

edit: with any of the mufflers listed you will need a resonator with the one i have you dont
