I think you should hear the FVD Gen 2.

Personally, I like CG Loud as well. Just in case you want something louder, here's a video of FVD Gen2.

I recently had the AWE Gen2 exhaust installed on mine. It only has 200 or so miles on it since install and sounds great. Very throaty on start up and a real snarl on acceleration. No drone or resonance in the cabin in any gear at any speed. Perfect fit with no adjustments needed and the Black Diamond tips are just AWEsome. Performance gain is noticeable. Unit weighed about the same as stock. Once I figure how to post videos I will post a clip of the sound. Bottom line is try and hear them for yourself, and find the one that checks all your boxes after all you have to live with it

Is there anyone in NJ with the FVD Gen 2 so I can hear it in person?

I heard the AWE and again I liked it but just wasn't what I'm after...in fact it did drone a bit which surprised me...there was no drone at all with the Cargraphic.

They are a little on the pricey side, but they deliver the whole package; great sound, great look, great quality, and great power(~30whp over stock).
Love my Europipe: here is a picture of the unit installed

IMO you can't go wrong with the Tubi system. Between the fit, finish, quality, and sound of the system, it's worth every penny.

No... Unfortunately a lifter failed under warranty and is currently being replaced. The dealer is nice enough to let me take pictures.

While the engine is down, upgrading to a Sportec Stage 3 mod!!!!!
