Sports exhaust Noise levels??

Im after sport back boxes for my 3.0i, but i dont want anything too loud, just a bit louder than standard with a bit of growl.Was consisering Remus back boxes, just wondering who runs a similar set-up, and what your noise levels are like? Have a custom built MIJ cat back system at the moment, all baffle-less straight through silencers, its just way too loud, impossible to cruise at 70 mph without getting a headache! Wanted something fairly quiet, any comment appreciated. Cheers.

i have remus and its barely noticable. So i added an xpipe too and now its very noticable.

But with just the remus i couldnt tell any difference from inside the cabin. With the windows down you can tell its not stock. And with it floored theres a nice little growl.

Thanks gregwx5. I am looking for something much deeper and somewhat louder, at least on the outside. The supersprint may be the right choice but it is hard to tell from the video.

shifter, with a 4.4, supersprint will sound nothing like gregwx5s video.

Krunk, thanks and I figured that. I would expect a deeper throatier sound from the 4.4. Am I offbase here, anyone heard the supersprint on a 4.4?
