I need an exhaust that does not sound like a weedeater...

Anyone know of a good performance exhaust that is not going to give my car that high pitched "weed eater" sound? I have to carry clients around in it at work (40 year old corporation owners) and I am sure they are not going to like that sound too much. However, I do want to get the HP gains of swapping exhaust systems. So what I am looking for is the quietest exhaust possible without sacrificing performance--or maybe something that has a removable silencer for it?

Who sells that? And will it perform just as good as any other aftermarket system?

I think Vivid sells it and it makes good power - it was installed on this car below and it sounded nice and not too loud

I have the RMR exhaust on my car. It sounds very throaty, but it booms a little. Not ricey at all... More like a V8 or something.

Do you have any sound clips for the RMR or know where I could find one?

WORKS Exhale:
- Looks great
- Sounds great -- nice and deep without being drony or raspy
- Fully T-304 Stainless Steel
- Weighs 1/3 as much as stock
- Costs $299 when purchased with Brain flash (otherwise $399 and includes ECU optimization)

Thanks David but I was looking for a FULL catback...not just the rear portion. Any suggestions in that area?
