Greedy = Lightest exhaust out of the above 2, but sound louder from what I've seen.

These are the 3 I looked at when deciding what to go for.

The RR Racing exhaust sounds way too loud for me.

Don't forget Headers will make all exhaust sound louder, I have Joe-Z and PPE Catless Headers and couldn't be happier.
I have to agree with this, that's why I choose the Joe Z as well. Its the jack of all trades and with headers it sounds even better.

Cruising at 85-90mph on the freeway from cali back to vegas it had almost no drone, you could barely even tell there was exhaust on the car. Could still have a normal tone conversation, but when you get on it, it wakes up a lot, that was the seller for me

H&S exhaust seems to sound pretty good too.

Any Joe-Z i have heard in person drones badly.. Personally too much for me.

I have the poor mans option (X-Force) and for me its perfect. Not as loud as Joe Z, but sounds nice, and no drone. For 1/4 of the price.

You get what you pay for though, workmanship on the Joe-Z is about 10 times as good, but i dont often get the mirror out to admire my exhausts haha!

the bazooka exhaust honestly is perfect imho if you want a loud exhaust. When you're just cruising around town not getting on it its very subtle and civilized like all the other exhausts but when you're on it all h*** breaks loose. You get all the pops and cracks you could wish for, i've had a few people stop me and asked if my cars cammed too lol. There is some drone around 2k rpm when you accelerate but thats it. I drive 600 miles to and from arizona twice a year cruising at 80/85 mph without a single hint of drone and it doesn't even bother my mom on that trip.
