I spent a lot of time researching and listening to every sound clip I could find,
that has lead me to Stillen, yeah I know it has some weight etc. But that is the only one imo that takes the natural engine tone and enhances it,
all the others modify it to one degree or another. (just my opinion)
Plus it is right at or near the top on gains.

It seems like any exhaust that uses a round muffler has a trumpet like tone. Not to say that is bad, just different, in fact the GT Haus sounds down right mean, but way way too loud for me. I have not heard the Nismo, but I assume it is a pretty mild sounding exhaust.

I made my decision on gains + tone/sound and proven track record. The weight is a non issue roughly equal to 1.5 gal of gas, who cares...
