Which Exhaust to Get for my Sedan??

I am looking at putting an exhaust either a cat-back or axle back system on my 2006 sedan. I am looking for a deeper tone with no droning noise. Also I like the dual tip look out the back, like the stock muffler too. Which exhaust would you recommend I look at getting??

there aren't too many options as of right now... i know of 2(im sure there are a few more)... Borla and Stillen... Stillen is nice but drones from what i hear...and Borla i haven't heard too many good stories about... I would recommend you wait a little longer for Fast Intentions is creating an exhaust for the sedan...it should be worth the wait

I love the Stillen, looks pretty much stock, and has an awesome sound. However, Gen 1 drones noticable - particularly going up hills and on the freeway. In the city, it's not to bad though. Gen 2 I hear fixed alotta it, but still drones a little. If you're willing to put up with some drone, I think you'll love the Stillen.

They will all have some drone. I have been very happy with my Borla and didn't have any drone until I installed high flow cats. I drove a Stillen (2nd gen) and it is louder and has more drone.

The stillen gen 2 is a good exhaust they say 20hp but I believe it's more like 10 to 15hp it does have drone on the highway.

Where did you buy your HKs exhaust. Also does the HKS muffler have dual tips coming out the back like the stock muffler??
