I have the HKS HI-Power with custom mid pipe and glass pack and its super loud and deep, like just going at 2k rpms I can feel my whole car shaking from the vibrations. Also quite a bit of drone so if you can deal with that or if your looking for a really loud exhaust go with that. As far as the other one I have no idea how that sounds in person.

the greddy's canister is smaller (narrower/thinner) and straighter (less angled) than hks. whatever floats your boat. i prefer fatter and angled canisters, so the HKS was the obvious choice for me. they both sound about the same, but you can put an optional silencer on the HKS (not sure about the greddy)

Well you are not going to get any power from any of those exhausts.

Well no exhaust really for the tC. You could get a hearder and a full exhaust all the way back and it would only get you a few hp. You wouldn't feel a huge difference in power. The only real way to get power from the tC is a turbo. Exhausts are more for sounds and looks for our cars.

yeah, i don't know that if you're looking for noticeable power that an exhaust would be the first mod to do. if you're not willing to go for forced induction go for an intake or headers first.
