Default Stock-sounding aftermarket exhaust system?

i dont know if this is really technical. but im wondering if there is a real quiet catback exhaust system out there that wont be so restrictive on a turbo setup. or would going custom 3" w/ two resonators work better?

A quiet 3" exhaust for a turbo? Two resonators may help. Guy at work is having Thermal make a cone shaped silencer for his 3".

i recall reading somewhere that resonators rob you of flow and are restrictive too?

maybee you could try Fujitsubo Legalis/Lagalis R
this is a Japanese exhaust that sound very quite and nice
i used to have one on my corolla very impressive
high price but the qualitie is well worth it

if you have trouble finding one i might be able to help
goto Signal Auto or someone like that maybee they can order it

a turbo car is quieter then a NA car because the exhaust gases are being pushed through the turbo. The apex WS is prett quiet but i don't think it's ideal for turbo.

Sounds like you are willing to sacrifice performance for quietness. Turbos love to be free. You can put resonators on it but you'll be losing power for sure. I don't believe there are any mass produced exhausts out there for Honda turbo setups. I've only heard of custom exhausts.
