There is no free lunch. You trade noise for a reduction in back pressure. From what I've heard, Racing Beat products are the best compromise--excellent performance and not too loud.

run true duals and have a pre-silencer for each runner. i would recommend the borla XR-1. and muffler with two in and two out, something that has seperate chambers.

depends on the exhaust set up and diameter. You can have your cake and eat it too, but it's gonna take some green.

I think the RB presilencer makes a big difference in sound. It doesn't just quiet it down, it reduces the tinny, chainsaw sound that you could have with cats or straight pipes.

Get a highflow converter, its just as quiet if not a bit more quiet then a pre-silencer, and your car will still be legal.
