Help choosing exhaust

Hey guys sorry if this was a thread already but I'm looking for an exhaust for my 07 sedan and found a few but I'm quite concerned about sound levels. I know I can't keep the stock decibel level but the closer I can be to it the better. Any suggestions?

When I was looking into catback exhausts... I narrowed my search down to Invidia Q300 and Fast Intentions. I like that MD catback too. I ended up getting the Invidia Gemini, ****'s HOTT.

Stillen are a bit on the louder side, if you want to stay as close to stock as possible, i would go with FI for sure, within a few weeks of driving the sound level sounds great and close to stock

Good luck with finding one that you genuinely like. I know you're a 2nd gen but I've been looking for an exhaust for my 05 sedan via videos on Youtube and I just can't find any that sound as good as most coupe exhausts do. They're either too quiet or too raspy, looking for that perfect mix of deep and loud and have yet to find it. Hopefully, you don't have the same problem, once again, good luck.

I noticed that internet videos/sound clips of exhausts make the exhaust seem RASPIER than it really is.

Stillen is too loud. Idk why you guys are suggesting it.

OP, the Invidia Q300 is a bit quieter compared to Stillen and FI.

Didn't realize you were looking for a quiet exhaust....

Compared to others I guess Stillen is on the load side...

It's not loud enough IMHO! heh

If I were you I would just swap out the mufflers or get a Y-back exhaust...
