Tanabe vs. Lexus HKS which sounds better

I see everyone is either choosing between the two exhausts and I was wonder ppl's opinions on which sounds better etc. stuff like that. Everyone is saying which they have but not why... leave opinions.

Tanabe sounds a lot better being as that it is almost a thousand less.

hks looks better.. I think it attracts too much unwanted attention... tanabe sounds nice enough without being too loud...

I absolutely love my Lexus HKS. I haven't heard a tanabe in person to compare, but my HKS puts out the perfect amount of sound.

I think the HKS Hi-power is too large, doesn't fit well with the car
