I would get the full cat-back exhaust, and get some drop-in K&N panel filters. Just my opinion..

Agree... the full CB will yield better results than just the intake/tails. Intakes don't do much for our cars.

Skip all of that and give Tony at Fast Intentions a call. A much better product with higher numbers, and better sound.

This... the F.I. is an excellent exhaust, and you can basically choose your volume. I have 18" resonators and now it just has a slight rumble at idle now that it's broken in, but just sings with a sweet tone at 3 grand and up.

loud is a waste... loud and performs well is another thing. My first mod was the Motordyne ART pipes, which was the best first mod I could have done. INSTANTLY notice the power difference.

Then it won't matter what exhaust you get if that's the case. Tony has redesigned the piping to raise the overall lowest point of his exhaust. If you want, I can take a ruler outside and measure my clearance, even with 1" drop all around for you.

Do you mean you're looking for something Not loud even noticeable at all speeds... this is kinda confusing??
