Need help deciding which exhaust.
oh forgot to mention, IF you have cams, just forget about trying to make it quiet. the lopey idle of the cams make it all THAT much louder.
my buschur was pretty reasonable with their HFC, then i switched to a 100 cell cat and it was very loud.
now that i have cams, im really regretting the cams, as the idle is sooo loud. but the power is sooo nice and i guess it sounds cool for the first 10 seconds then its just... meh.
i've stopped listening to people saying what is quiet, everyone's ears tolerate differently. look at the guys with headphones on listening to music that YOU can hear too and they say its on low.
quiet = stock exhaust
user option= varex
i'll be getting the varex after i fix my tcase. wasted about the same amount of money listening to people and doing different things.
why i think the varex will be quiet, because the fact that it closes the exhaust path. anything straight thru will be loud, when the path is blocked, it'll be less audible.

Quiet and power are not simultaneously obtainable.
I researched this a lot over a year ago. If you want quiet stick with the stock exhaust.
If you want power get a Buschur I think it is probably the least obnoxious of the power making aftermarket exhausts. It is pretty loud over 5k RPM' s.

So
A. Where exactly would the bullet go?
B. Any ideas on the "quietest" bullet.

this is a good start:

I'll have to go back and look at BlueEvoIX's project again.
Hmmm. I've been considering getting the neck-down removed from my Tanabe. Maybe I can self-justify that move if I get a bullet muffler installed somewhere along the pipe. I want to keep my 100 cell, though, so it will have to be elsewhere. Also, I want the most effective bullet possible.

2.65" right at the entrance where the tip meets the body? What about where the pipe enters the rear muffler, through the rear muffler itself and also within the central resonator? If its only at the entrance there can it be modified?
I've heard of these on 430-500HP cars so I was under the impression it was decent.

Well mines going to have to have the tip cut and shortened anyway as I have the JDM rear, so I might see if we can cut the muffler off and remove that neck down if possible. Wonder what it would do to sound levels though.
Do you have a sound clip with the noir?
I used to drive a lot, about 500 miles every week. I got real tired of the drone so I ended up getting the Apex Noir. Real quiet, especially at WOT. From the O2 housing all the way back is 3 in, so I expected it to be a little louder but I was surprised when it wasn't. I would really compare it to the stock exhaust without the performance restrictions. I ended up getting a loud exhaust again though because I missed the aggressive sound. lol
He's saying the point is its not loud all the time. 80mm Ti systems are loud even cruising and driving around town. With a stealth system you can drive around quietly if you want and cruise on the highway without drone/having to yell to talk, probably even pass a noise test, but the flow/sound is there when you want it.

Thank you. This is exactly what i meant. Even at wot the stealth is quieter than most exhausts. Any 3" exhaust is going to be loud at wot regardless. Is flat black and looks "stocker" than factory exhaust, but is one of the best flowing pieces.
