Alright, I know this has been hammered to death but $600 isn't something I want to spend on the "wrong" exhaust. And haven't really found my answers in the search.

I have a 99 SI and obviously looking for exhaust. I don't want something real lound and of course want a nice sound. I would normaly say "quiet" but everyones opinion of quiet is different. A few that I am trying to decide on are the RS*R, Apexi WS, Greddy WS, and maybe the Mugen Twin Loop.

The best way I can describe the loudness is if stock is 1 and loud straight through muffler is 5 I want a 2.5 to 3.5. You know, something right in between. I heard an Apexi WS at the track the other day on a B16a2 hatch and it sounded almost too quiet and had a funny tin sound to it. A friend several years ago had one of the original Greddy's on his 94 single cam coupe and it sounded nice. I could live with that, maybe just a hair quieter. I just don't want to attract too much unwanted attention. Right now with stock exhaust I can go WOT through town and no one (cops) hear me coming.

One of my other concerns is power increase in these systems. Are they all about the same? I know you really don't gain a whole lot from exhaust but every little bit helps.

Thanks in advance. Once again I apologize for beating this topic to death but I did a search and read all the topics about it already.
