Which route would YOU go?

my header is in and now is time to decide on an exhaust- i ordered the megan 2.5 catback but it came in 2" so i cancelled the order- and now am stuck between the megan 2.5 and the HKS catback- i love the stock look of the hks but heard it was a little smaller then the megan. right now ive got an intake, header, advanced timing and dont know if i will do anymore mods. i daily drive this so i dont want it to be too loud. would you go with the hks for the better look and sound or the megan for the bigger piping?

imo go w/ smaller than 2.5"... I have more mods on my daily and 2.5" is loud to me. If I were to choose again, I would have went with a smaller diameter, something like 2.25".

It sounds hard at wot though...

it isn't the size I think. Go with the 2.5" but make sure you run the cat and the resonator as well as the muffler. If you leave any of the 3 out it will sound bad.
