Need opinion on exhausts

hey guys,
i currently have an ultimate racing axle back exhaust..
the fitment is good and all but the exhaust makes passengers extremely uncomfortable and interiors very loud.

is there a way to solve this? i would imagine buying the ultimate racing mid pips would make it even louder.

anyone have experience with an exhaust that keeps the interior quiet but has performance gains?
so far from searching on the forum, i found that people ask saying hks is the quiet one.

thanks in advance

HKS, Magnaflow, and DC Sports are all relatively quiet exhausts compared to the UR (HKS being the quietest, slightly increased volume from Magnaflow, while DC is loudest of the three but still quite tame) all three still have a good sound to them, just too quiet for my taste, personally.

All those exhaust are quiet, i have the UR and lots of people buy the exhaust with the resonators to lower the volume. Of course its always going to be louder than stock..

Vibrant makes resonators that that help get the sound level down, and they will make a negligible difference in performance.
They make two types, the bottle style which allows for clearance, and the ultra quiet type which is larger but helps bring down the sound level even futher. These resonators are relatively inexpensive and can be easily welded into your midpipe.

have you heard these in person? im concerned about cabin noise.
UR axle back is way too loud and makes passengers vibrate lol

exhaust with resonators? so that would be the full cat back UR exhaust?
wouldn't that make the exhaust louder then just the axle back?
i dont mind louder then stock. as long as its loud outside the car and no inside lol. im going to dynamat my doors and sound proof rubber the whole trunk.
hoping it would bring cabin noise down !!

i've thought about welding a resonator, but then i got a crazy idea of doing a custom exhaust. With two greddy ti-c muffler and hks center pipes. with greddy ti-c, i felt that the silencers helped a lot. my buddy's 370z with greddy ti-c cat-back sounds great with windows down, but with windows up the interior is fairly quiet.

thanks guys
