Default Injen SES vs Borla S-Type Exhaust

I bought a 2008 350Z a few months ago and it has stock exhaust. I traded in a Civic Si that had a really loud and ricey exhaust (Full Race setup), and honestly I miss it. I can't stand that my Z is so quiet. It's embarrassing.

I've been looking for several months at exhausts for 350Zs. I like the "meaty" aggressive sound for a Z, not the high-pitched rice that my Civic would've produced. My friend has the Nismo setup on his Z, and I don't really find it loud enough at idle or at low RPM, just to give you a reference point. I've looked at pretty much every 350Z exhaust video on YouTube and I've read tons of threads here. They all sound different and I'm still confused. I'm now debating between two setups: Injen SES 1987TT and the Borla S-Type (links below for accuracy).

Does anyone have these exact systems and can comment? I know the Injen one gets a lot of complaints about drone, but my Honda had serious drone and I kind of liked it on the interstate. I found it relaxing. I care about sound only. They're about the same price, and I know that HP increases are minimal, so I'm not even taking that into consideration. Just looking to hear from people that are running these exact systems. I want to buy one of them probably in a week or two.

If you like rasp and drone you should look into a single. They are the loudest. Duals are inherently quieter
