Default TRD or GReddy SP2

I currently have a TRD exhaust (nice and deep sound, but getting over it and sometimes annoying for daily driving), I wanted to go with something more subtle (other than stock, kinda like G35's you can't really notice it). I was thinking Greddy SP2, any other suggestions?

The SP2 is probably the quietest aftermarket exhaust for the tC. I love mine, quiet at idle and cruising, but has a deep growl when you stomp on it.

I have the sp2 and you cant even hear it under normal driving, but it does have a nice growl when you punch it. Where in socal are you? I was thinking about trading my sp2 for the trd cause the sp2 is almost too quiet for me.

During normal driving, I'd say the SP2 is barely louder than stock. You can listen to the stereo at low volumes and won't notice it. If you like to crank your stereo, you won't hear the exhaust at all.

I would sugest looking at this link. The best and so so so quiet with a header. Plus look at that price 285.00 axel back and 395.00 catback. You wont get a SP2 for that price. Contact my boys at Precision Muffler

( exhaust half way down page)

not mendrel bent

no support on the right of the muffler for a hanger to attach

www.draxas.com makes a very good exhaust system, as loud as trd, but IMO, thats not loud at all

I'm looking for something along these lines as well, I was some power gain, but I dont want to seem like a box of rice zipping down the roadway, so I dont want the angry weed whacker sound, how is the sound on the ZPI one? (i ask because I have read so much good stuff about you guys on here)
