Since you don't want anything loud, just get a Nismo exhaust, Stillen intake, and a tune when you're done. The end.

I have HKS. Not sure about power gain. At least my butt dyno tells me no big differences(with stock cats and tune). HKS sounds really nice and it's not loud just like stock nismo exhaust. So it might suit your needs well. But HKS pair with Berk or other HFCs WILL be quite loud.

I've heard MD exhaust in person so many times with both stock cats and test pipes. With stock cats, it's not loud and sound very VQ. Pure sex! With test pipes, it sounds very loud you can actually scare people by stomping on the gas. But still sounds very nice like race car.

That's what I am looking for. Good solid sound but not obnoxious.

HKS Hi-Power Cat Back Exhaust. it looks amazing, sounds deep and quiet until you hit about 4-5000 rpm and then its just a loud purr. the guys at work tried telling me it wasn't loud enough with it running while parked. but if i wanted that, i would've gotten a cheap $800 exhaust and if i did that i might as well put honda emblems on it and neon lights

I personally like carbon fiber mufflers.
HKS is alright. A little over priced for what you're getting. I think the HKS sounds like a 4 banger Honda & way too raspy. If that's what u want out of a V6... To each their own. But does look really good
