so looking after the many different exhausts...
I can no longer figure out which one that I want. I like the racing beat one and I also like that agency power one. Some of the others seem to be ok but melt the shroud? The one I really liked costs 2600 dollars and I can't justify that much money for just the back end. I only want the catback so which is the most commonly sought after one?

Turbo XS will give you louder... but unless you do some work on the tips, it may melt the shroud. Even after you pay to have that done, its a cheap system (~$500)

^+1 on the turbo xs being a legit exhaust at a really good price -
although you may have to extend the tips to avoid melting anything, it's still a pretty good exhaust that a lot of forum members have. It's plenty loud too.
IMO, if you want a good exhaust that a lot of forum members have and recommend w/out having to deal w/fitment or adjustment - look for racingbeat - it's got a nice tone to it w/out being too overly loud.

Racing Beat is a GREAT choice but it is one of the more subtle exhausts out here.
Borla is agressive
HKS hi-power is a one sided exhaust that sounds awesome. (check youtube for vids)

Agency Power ftw!
I have had my exhaust on for roughly 3 -4 weeks now without any fitment issues and the exhaust note is just pure sex in my opinion!

I'm in the market for a new exhaust also. I have the first model Borla currently (heat shield rattle and all) and I have to admit it sounds REEEEEALY nice. When it's not rattling of course. But with my rp supercat, it's loud. It's a nice sounding loud but I want some quieter solution, if there is a thing.
What exhaust can, combined with my hi-flo, give a much more subtle sound than my current combo? I know it's still going to be loud, but I really don't want to pay $1220.00 for a new stock cat!!!

The TurboXS catback exhaust is excellent value and also very good quality and 3" all the way. On the negative side it is loud, http://videos.streetfire.net/video/M...boXS_80943.htm
and can melt the shroud unless you lenghten the tips.
It is also very loud inside the car and can become tiring on long trips.

agency power is a good choice. i've had mine for about a month now and it has a good sound.. kinda drones at 3000-4000 rpm tho. if i had a choice for a second set, i'd go with the HKS hi power
