Default Help for a new S200 owner!

As a new S2000 owner, I've been researching on what exhaust to buy! However, I've been having a hard time deciding on what to buy. I know it's all about preference and you need to hear them for yourself, but I just want to know what you guys think. These are what have my attention right now:

Fujistubo Legalis R (if they're still available)
Invidia Q300
Greddy Spectrum Elite

Now, I dislike how certain Civics, Integras, and whatnot sound really loud and ricey. I'm looking for a quiet mean sound. Loud when I want it to be. Some exhausts hum loudly in the cabin when the car is just on idling. I DON'T WANT THAT. My car is pretty much going to be driven daily, so you can guess what I am looking for. Basically, if a person hears but doesn't see my car, I don't want them to think a Civic with a universal muffler is pulling up.

I'm open to other suggestions and if you give me a suggestion please explain why you chose that lol not just tell me what to choose!

Anyways, I look forward to making new friendships with all of you in the S2KI community!

Thanks in advance!

Welcome!

Invidia Q300, not ricey at idle, deep sound when you get on it a bit and no drone. I love mine!

Greddy SE Dual with a 63mm or 70mm Berks HFC. Without the HFC it will have some drone. This dual exhaust is great. Spend the money and get a good exhaust. If you are looking for something that only gets loud when you get on it try the Apexi World Sport II. Great at cruising around and when you get it does sound nice. Good luck with you choice man.

I second the greddy se duel with 70mm berk hfc. I've had the setup for about 300 miles now and I dont regret it. No rasp either, just a nice sporty sound.

Q300 gets my vote. I personally dont like the way it looks, but it does sound nice.

My vote goes to the Invidia Q300 as well. Its sound level is very reasonable below 4k rpm, and it gets quite raspy at WOT. You can get it on sale for around $650 new. If you like the burnt look, make sure you order the version with the titanium tips.
