Looking for a Quiet Exhaust
I am looking for an exhaust that is quiet, and looks good, don't care about the power. I've read many topics on this and narrowed it down to Megan,TRD,Greddy and Borla. Also is there a difference between Axleback and Catback noisewise? Let me know if these are good or if there are other exhaust system that I missed.

well i have the tanabe concept g axle back... not really loud at all... doesn't bother my nieghbors. but the stock exhaust with a CAI is really nice. gives you a good tone. expecally when you punch it. im not sure about the greddy, my friend has an evo to on his spec v and its really quiet.... try youtube, there are plenty of vids of scion tc with exhausts.
good luck though.... my exhaust was the first thing i did to my car, and i never regeted it.

TRD can be quite loud if you make it.
But I work nights so I come home quietly and pull into my spot. Go into house and play around on the computer. Decided McDonald's breakfast sounds good so I get into the car at 4:45 am and started it up. Or at 2:30-3:00 am, I'll go to Walmart.
Neighbors haven't complained. I have CAI.

GReddy is not really quiet at all.........so do not get it........just put one on the Yaris with Injen CAI and car is louder then the tC......
TRD is fairly quiet as long as you do not get on it.......
Tanabe is nice sounding.......and quiet........stock is even more so......

The tanabe touring medallion is even quieter the the concept g, but more expensive. I have the touring medallion on mine with the alphawerks header and injen cai. Its so quiet u can hear my header rasp over the exhaust. So i dont know if you want something that quiet. but for best sound and still quiet i would recommend the concept g. Unless u want almost stock sound then the medallion touring.

chalk it up again for Greddy SP2. I have the AlphaWerks header and when it's matched to the GReddy SP2, it is pretty quiet. But when I switch it up to my Tsudo or HKS Hi-Power axleback, it is really loud.
