Default Exhaust advice SC applications

i was considering an exhaust swap to lessen the drone i get with my setup. Could just be my combo of vortech, HFC, or the borla but i was considering something different. Welcome to suggestions, i hate a ricey sound that a few exhausts offer. I have been looking at the stillen TD, and i like the way the nismo sounds, but i have read problems with that exhaust.
Again, its for SC purposes, so i dont want too restrictive. SC isnt the same as turbo so a ridiculous 3" dual isnt what i want to hear. Would appreciate any experience someone could share.

from my checking around audio files, hks sounds decent, but i know this exhaust is a bit more pricey. If anyone wouldnt mind any reviews of the exhausts mentioned below or really wants to recommend something i havent considered, im happy to continue research.
stillen TD, nismo, HKS, injen

The Stillen and EVO will work better for FI applications.

That brings it down to two.

Im using the Fast Intention's Intimidator exhaust 2.5" OD. Ill let you know how it sounds with the vortech once my build is finished. I had the HKS knockoff Xo2 exhaust and that sounded like a fart pipe. I would not recommend it since you already complained about droning.

I was procharged with borla sounds great not to loud and enough flow with resonated test pipes. But Stillen would be a great exhaust too. You have a lot of options with a Supercharger...

i like the borla, but around 2k cruising, it resonates through the car sometimes. Unless some sound buffering like dynamat would help, new exhaust maybe in order.

Would the Nismo S-Tune hold up with any type of FI? If not that will suck seeing how i just got mine.=(

depends on the FI, SC yes, but may cost some power depending the airflow. Lower boost applications unlikely. But for a turbo i would imagine it too restrictive.
