defintely borla or Tanabe... they both sound more aggressive than nismo and stillen's exhaust. Honestly, I barely hear a difference in nismo vs stock.. the engine sounds more throaty, but the deep growl that you get from borla and tanabe is lacking in Nismo and Stillen... I guess it depends on the soud you're going for

Nismo, all the way. its got a very nice tone to it, not too obnoxious. gets 100x better when you step on it. i passed my buddy in his type-s in 4th gear and he said "it sounds like sex just drove past me". i love the sound.

I keep thinking the same thing, some people say it almost sounds like the stock exhaust and others say that it sounds like a Z.

It's all just based on your personal preference.

Input..since you live in Southern Cali..maybe you should head to the car meet in December and listen to the exhausts in person to make your decision. If worst comes to worst listen to youtube videos.
