In my honest opinion, I think muffler deletes sound horrid. But thats just my taste , nor do I want the attention. But there are some decent axlebacks out there that will not break the bank. I have the Tsudo axle back with OEM midpipe and it sounds great although it may be too tame for your taste. I’ve heard several setups in person. The HKS is loud and aggressive, fsport w/ megan middy sounds beautiful (expensive) , Tsudo with invidia middy ( sort of raspy) , and many others but unsure of the setup. I would try to spend a little bit of money to get a quality product.

I'm personally a fan of the Invidia Q300 system as it gives you a more aggressive tone without being too raspy or obnoxious. Please feel free to shoot me a PM with any questions or for forum pricing.

You say you don't want any rasp, but that's exactly what you introduced with the resonator delete. Just about anything you do now will just exasperate the rasp, I would highly advise putting the resonator back on if you go with an aftermarket axleback solution.

The Tanabe is probably the best choice. No matter what, just about all the aftermarket axlebacks (including Lexus's own F-Sport) have some drone to them.
