For the deepest tone you would always want the biggest exhaust components, like resonators and mufflers. Basically when you buy a cat-back you buy a proven product that is known to sound good to certain people, so you can search and find feedback on it, versus a custom setup, where you don't really know what's going to sound like. You only have an idea, unless you make custom exhausts for a living...

Thermal R & D classic cat back... Very load & throaty... i have a 96 EX, it can set off car alarms if i want. Very good quality too. It doesn't sound like *** on top end either.

Do some searching. You cant just ask a question about which exhaust is best, there are so many. Everyones opinion is based on what they think looks best, sounds best, performs best for there situation. Do you plan to keep it stock? Go all motor? Go turbo? Supercharge? Swap? Click on the search button, theres tons of information out there on such a simple thing as exhausts.

I just got Invidia catback used from a member. Installed it last night, fits pretty good, but rubs on the bumper slightly(I have an EG coupe). Sounds DEEP and throaty. I love the way it sounds, but it might get annoying after awhile. I'll see how the highway drive to work is here in a few minutes. It has a silencer also, it kinda looks like there are 2 levels of silencing you can use with it. We just jammed it into the muffler to see what it sounded like, and honestly it didn't sound too bad. Didn't really have that fart sound like Apex'i N1 does with a silencer in. Outside the car, its not loud at all. Has a smooth/deep/aggressive tone to it.

It doesn't matter, you will hardly have any gains and make your car more into a thief magnet.
