Default Need a few opinions on an exhaust setup

I need everyone's opinion on which way i should go. One part of me wants to make it loud as **** and another wants me to keep it quiet at idle but throaty above 4000rpm. What does everyone prefer? Loud or quiet?

I'm dropping the car off after 9 so hopefully i'll have some good opinions by then. Getting a full custom catback bent along with an X and test pipes...

i like a mellow sound. no need to be the loudest (annoying) guy on the block. clean and mellow is good.

im not a fan of the ricey sounding loud ones sound. a few of my buddies have that kinda **** and thats all you can hear in the car. it gets old quick, ive even heard of a few people getting rid of them after a while because of it. i went borla, its not the loudest, its real quiet at idle but sounds real good when im given it some gas. out of all i have heard its my favorite.. sometimes i leave my windows open and just listen to that **** when the weathers not 130 f*ckin degrees.. az ftw

i LOVE the way the Borla sounds on the Z but i don't like how it doesn't look so aggressive. i went with the HKS strictly because of how it looks but the sound isn't to bad. i wish i could get the Borla sound with the HKS look.

LOUD LOUD LOUD! I had an AAM single, AAM Y pipe, and Strup TP's. LOVED the way it sounded. Took that off, and went to AAM HFC, and HKS Hi-Power. That sounded nice and exotic, not too loud. Wasn't loud enough for me. Now I'm running my AAM HFC, with my AAM Y, and AAM Single. Love it! It's gotta be loud.

Hate loud as f@ck exhausts. I used to have a Celica GT with Kazuma exhaust (loud as can be), been through that and never going back. Tanabe does what i like in an exhaust...stock noise but deeper and wakes up when im on the gas. I will admit though i do have some relapses and have been close to buying TPs for fun but nah
