Borla, magnaflow, or flowmaster straight pipe exhaust?

There's a member on here with a custom Flowmaster exhaust that Sounds good. I can relate on these import's exhaust being a bit high pitch. I used to have a 03 Mustang Cobra and haven't gotten an exhaust for the IS because of the import-ish sound (for my taste). Some sound good, but just not something I'd want to spend a lot of money on and hear every day. Anywho, if you search for the thread you can get better insight into his set up.

Sidenote: Do you have a intake installed?

I've got one and basically I can't hear anything from the front. Apparently a very quiet drone if you're sitting in the back but more than worth it for when it comes on song!

What's up bro. I was reading this and I hella cracked up because I realized who you were. I was at the Bay Area meet with you a couple weeks back. I had the Greddy exhaust. But I picked up an invidia midpipe recently. Thinking bout changing it up for more custom. Hope Simon has been doing well

My friend ended up going with flowmaster straight pipes all the way through from primary cats. Send me a video and you can hear the exhaust from within the cabin (idk if his windows were down) but it's definitely louder than my current setup, not sure about the drone.

Is Greddy + invidia really that loud? I thought mine would be louder haha. I know what you mean haha, there's a person in my neighborhood with invidia n1 race exhaust on his 2012 WRX sedan and another guy who comes often and he's got a Roush stage 3 mustang. I myself used to be surrounded by loud *** mustangs lol so I'm used to being around loud exhaust 😂 very nice username btw, I like it

Nah it's not that loud. I have a video of it posted in my build thread some where. I'm thinking a muffler delete might be too loud.. I kinda like how under 3k, it's not loud. But at the same time I hate having to hit 3k to be heard LOL. Good for cops though.. I might keep it, I might not. I'm not too sure. I don't want to be too loud. But just loud enough so people that it's noticeable while cruising at like 2k rims

I've been running Megan racing catback exhaust with the invidia midpipe for a while and it's loud for sure but there's too much drone inside the car if I'm doing over 65. I'm thinking about switching to a straight pipe exhaust but still running the midpipe but I don't know which one gives off a throatier and low tone sound if combined with the midpipe. If I do this, it will be a custom welded exhaust, not the actual product ordered from the company's site. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
*Invidia midpipe has a resonator

However there is a drone at 3k rpm, but I don't mind it as I drive with my music blasting anyways .
