STILLEN vs. FAST INTENTIONS vs. FUJITSUBO

Im currently selling an Injen Ti Track exhaust because it's too loud for my taste. Im now choosing from the FI, Stillen, and Fujitsubo.

I'm leaning towards the FI but I'm afraid that it's too loud, I think the Stillen is louder than Fujitsubo but I'm not sure. What do you guys think? How loud is the Fi vs. stock vs. Stillen?

I'd go with FUJITSUBO for the look and for the exhaust note (not too loud)

I would go Fuji, stillen, fast intentions.

Stillen is going to provide the most gains, but weighs a little bit more. The fuji has nice gains as well and weighs the same as the factory. Fast intentions...never been a fan of the looks, but it sounds basically identical to the stillen.

if you have 5AT, then I'd stay away from the Fast Intentions. too much of a drone for me when I had it. I'm also looking at the Fuji, as well as the Tanabe Medallion Touring.

O RLY, how do you think it sounds compared to stock? sounds like you own the exhaust, what other breathing mods did you have and how did that effect the sound?

nah, i don't have it. i have hks.

but i've heard the fuji both inside and outside of the car. and i can honestly say that if i didn't already have my hks, then i'd have the fuji.

it's quiet upon cruising and daily driving, but when you step on it it really opens up - and not to the point of annoyance. it gets louder when you step on it, but not so that it will wake the neighbors up. it's enough to get noticed, but not by cops. hard to explain. it's perfect IMO.

Fuji is a great exhaust, but too quiet for my tastes. Stillen sounds great, just like stock but louder (hear it every day ---> neighbor), but it looks awful for an aftermarket exhaust.

Hence, I have a Fast Intentions with resonated test pipes & love it. The test pipes made it very loud though.
