JBL with nameless headerback is pretty nice from what I've heard.

A little mean and not too loud is incredibly subjective. You can't get an idea from videos either. These things require a bit of leg work. Go to some local meets and as cars come in with a sound you like go talk to them.

Agree. I did a Revworks UEL, Perrin overpipe and Perrin 3" catback (resonated) based on YouTube. Bad move - waaaaay too noisy for me. Going to drop to a Perrin 2.5" system later this week and sell my 3"...

I've got a similar setup. Revworks UEL, Perrin frontpipe with high flow cat, Perrin overpipe and I went with the Q300 to try to keep it quiet. It's not that quiet.

Hoping the 2.5" does the trick. Also doing a Perrin CAI, in the hopes that the whine from the Innovate SC gets a little more pronounced.

BTW - you've got a VERY nice build. Nice work!
