Default Which dual exhaust HKS or Greddy ti-c or...

I posted this in under the hood forum but then read the stickys afterwards that they dont want these type of questions in there so i appologize for that .but anyway ...

Hi im new to this site and i been reading up on dual exhausts and it seems that the only dual exhausts that are not obnoxiously loud and have a nice deep tone to it are the hks and greddy ti-c. This is at least what i have found browsing the forums.

Now out of the two exhausts which one would have the deeper tone and just plain out sound nicer. Now i know people have diff opinions so before i buy one of them i would just like to see what people that own them have to say about them.

Also what other dual exhausts out there have a nice deep tone but are not obnoxiously loud. To me obnoxiously loud would be the invidia.From what i read everyone thinks its fairlely loud.

Thanks in advance.

Out of those two I would go Greddy Ti-c as it is full stainless and the HKS is not. Also the Greddy has a larger pipe diameter going from 70mm mid pipe and splitting into two 60mm to the canisters.
Plus I like the look of the ti burn tips.

T1R 63mm Sparrow would also be another option. This exhaust sounds really nice and has vertually no drone.

^Actually the Ti-C is 60mm to 50mm like the HKS. It's a little quieter than the T1R. The HKS still is considered to be one of the best sounding still but very happy with the Ti-C that I'm running with a test pipe. Check out Invision's thread in the Group Buys for the video clips of both. If you get a chance, try to hear both in person. That should make your decision making a lot easier than listening to video clips.

How much does the Greddy exhaust weigh?

I have the HKS, and was informed that the pipes ARE stainless steel.
just lower grade material and painted.
I could be wrong though.

I'm confused because according to Evasive's website
"S2000 application comes with... Dual stainless muffler w/titanium tip 70mm pipe splits into 60mm pipes(w/50mm removable silencers) "

Greddy Ti-c

Unless they have changed the design lately they are aluminized steel not stainless.

"All HKS exhaust systems are engineered for high-performance and durability. Each bolt-on system features high-quality mandrel bent, bake-coated aluminized steel piping and application specific muffler assemblies to maximize horsepower and torque gains."

HKS + testpipe sounds absolutely amazing. It's very smooth, and loud but not so loud that you can't stand it. People always tell me it sounds like a louder 350Z. I was kinda going for that
