Yea, but those are some pretty bad *** looking moonshine jugs!
HKS is winning because everybody and their brother has one, and those people bought it obviously because they think it is the best...otherwise they wouldn't have paid $1500 for it! Thus, the results of this poll are more likely going to tell you the popularity of the different exhausts, rather than which one is the "best". I'm not saying HKS isn't the best, but so far everyone is just basing their votes on sound and looks...which is just personal opinion.
Now if you want to make this a more quantitative poll, there should be dyno proof of power gain on each system, cost comparisons, weight savings, etc. Evaluate all of these aspects, assign point values for each category, and go by overall ranking. Then throw in style and sound.

I have an HKS i just got, and i voted Fast Intentions, why? because you asked the best for a NA car.....
I noticed a small change in my low end, but from 4k-redline, i noticed the HKS made a nice change. Injen = louder and drone, thats all....
and as for the greddy evo2? no one has it - period. When i was looking for sound clips, i found like 1 or 2, and people dont post about it because of that. I was very close to getting it, just to be different, and it was recommended by many of the local shops, when i was looking for HKS pricing. If i had heard it in person, and liked it > the HKS, i woulda gotten it.

FastIntentions Intimidator, hands down.
Pro's:
Great gains
Great classy looks
Great quality
True Dual
Great sound, not too loud, not too soft
The best customer service you can ask for
Direct contact with the person whom built your exact system
NO drone
Con's:
Might not be loud enough for some
Looks might not be aggressive enough for some
I feel that the HKS is too ricey sounding. It's too high pitched for me. The Injen is too loud and it drones and drones and drones but it does sound like HKS on steroids. It has a deeper, and like I said, louder note to it. Did I mention it drones? Both the HKS and Injen look great. They are both very aggressive, but thats not the look Im going for.
Stillen is nice sounding but its not true dual, atleast to me. It still has a Y-pipe(two y-pipes actually) and the gains are over-rated by Stillen.
The Greddy exhaust just looks ricey. The mufflers look like the "Fart-cans" you'd find on a Honda Civic or Toyota Celica. I feel that the Greddy system drops the G a few levels on the "class scale". It does sound good though, it has a nice deep, constant tone.
But in the end, its all subjective based on how each system looks and sounds. In my opinion, FastIntentions is for me. I had the Injen Track Edition Ti Tip but it was too loud for me and it droned like a mother!
