The greddy sounds better. the sound volume difference is a 3.

hope you're not looking for solid answers on this opinionated question

I have supercharged 08' with the q300 and a test pipe. In my opinion it is way to loud. Will be looking to make a change in the near future.

yeah I know it's subjective but I have no other means of knowing right now. When you say it a 3, you mean as in a scale of 0-10, the Greddy is louder by 3 digits? Also do you know anything about the drone in each?

PS: is there any advantage to a 'equal length' exhaust for a dual? (the Q300 is equal length and the Greddy isn't)

A straight shot from the manifold to the exhaust tips should be preffered. How much of a difference this would make, I have no idea.

I can't comment on the Greddy, but I just installed a Q300 on my s last weekend and it sounds great (stock cat and K&N FIPK).

Using a Q300 with anything other than stock cat is a mistake.

Isn't the stock cat fairly high flow?

Is there really anything to be gained from a HFC?
