For that kind of dough, you have a lot of choices. Not sure about the conservative sound you're looking for, though. The stock CBE is way too quiet, in my opinion.

Have you checked out these stickied threads?

Thanks! Yeah, I've been looking at some of those. Sooooo many choices :-)

I like the GT Haus if I was to opt for non-conservative. But it's never going to sound like a v8. That's why I'm not comfortable with something too loud.

Throw on some headers. From what I read,they give a deeper tone.

I think I'll pass on that :-) I'll probably stay stock for a bit until I get restless, which might not take long. Them I'll decide what CBE to get.

Thanks!

Headers do the exact opposite. The exhaust pitch is higher. More resonators generally equals lower, deeper sound. My old Tanabe exhaust was "conservative", but not with headers. There are quite a few exhausts that are meant to be under 95db.
