Default Greddy SE or HKS?

So im curious which exhaust sounds better i narrowed it down to these 2 exhausts to put on.
I looked up each of them but I cant really decide.

HKS is a bit cheaper but im not too worried about that.

If you are referring to the Greddy SE single... I just installed a used one and it's by far the most annoying exhaust I've heard. So much drone with deep bass!! I want to get rid of it. In comparison, I have a T1R 70EM and it sounds a lot better and it's without the deep ear drum shaking bass. The T1R 70EM screams up top.

t1r 70EM is my favorite single ever made. Combined with a test pipe it sounds perfect.

I have the greddy SE dual installed with a BERK HFC 70mm and love it. Nice deep tone, very minimal droning, and love the looks

I have the Gotuning GReddy SE Dual exhaust on my 07 AP2. Get ready to buy some ear plugs! That thing is loud and annoying! It's get real bad on the highway from 3-4k rpm at 65-70mph that thing start humming until your ears pop! I just bought the Berk 70mm HFC so hopefully it would take the humming noise away or else I'm going back to stock. I LOVE the way the GReddy SE looks tho! Too bad the noise is too crazy for me. good luck

everyone's opinion is relative.

I've heard people say the SE is loud. I rode in a car with it and thought it was barely louder than stock, could hear the intake more than the exhaust.

My 2 cents is that the HKS dual is the best sounding. I think most exhausts will have drone in that range regardless.

Hey, just put on a 70mm test pipe and it tones down the brain scrambling drone. Local member also has same set up and it makes a big difference.

Not going to lie. At first I wanted to get rid of the exhuast but, a week later I've gotten use to the drone then contemplated weather or not I should get a test pipe. Until I rode along in a local members S with SE paired with a 70mm testpipe. Like I said made a difference in a good way.
