Default loudness scale

Hks being possibly the loudest base on what ive heard on a g35


but how would everyone rank the following in terms of loudness

hks
greddy evo2
greddy sp2
apexi n1
tanabe super medallion hyper
tanabe with a y-pipe
nismo
skunk 2 true dual



i would assume the quiet one of the group would be the nismo but i thought i would ask im sure alot of people are curious about the same thing and of course this is directed to the people that have heard alot here in east tn we have a total of 2 g35's and one z with an exhaust so not too much to choose from and for the search ***** yes i have searched and this seems to be a scale that i can't find or that everyone might want to try to make

thanks as always

the nismo is definatley pretty quiet. You can assume any true dual with test pipes/hf cats is gonna be pretty nasty.

from the sound of that g35 i can 2nd that that thing was just unbearable loud, but if that's what you like, im looking for something in the middle of the road ive thought about the tanabe but the skunk2 being true dual and doesn't seem too unreal loud from the two vids of it but you know you can't ever tell anything from youtube
i just seem to change my mind about what i want every twenty mins so i thought that if we all could help out with a scale might help me plus other people who are having a hard time deciding what to get

and like i said i have watched so many vid clips i think im going insane

If you had several 350Zs with different exhausts, proper measuring instruments, and controlled criteria (are we measuring at idle or 5,000 RPM?), we might be able to come up with some useful data.

Any other method is a guess at best.

not trying to do that just was asking about this, the true dual thread was simply asking if a true dual was really necessary for a car that was not going to ever be FI not trying to beat a dead horse but just looking to answer two different questions sorry i didn't think to put them in the same thread

This is a totally ridiculous subject. There are so many variables at play here as David said, that any data provided by different people with different hearing, on different cars with different configurations, under different environmental and spatial conditions, to be absolutely meaningless. I will go out on a limb and state that no single person has, or ever will, observe all the possible combinations involving the subject exhausts. Maybe we should solve the Palestinian situation while we're at it too.

greddy evo2
tanabe with y
