I've got the borla hush...I like it does have good performance gains, but I have also heard nothing but good things about the evo and stromung. Although if you're going for the sleeper look the evo might not be the route to go seeing as how it has a bigger tip than the hush and the dual tip stromung. Do a search on the borla hush and you'll find the dyno plots I have of it.

Greddy Evo! It sounds great (not very much louder than stock, but it gives a nice low grumble), and looks great too. It's not quite as stealth-looking as the Borla or Stromung (both look stock), but it doesn't jump out at you either like the HKS does. It still tucks up nicely under the bumper.
But I have heard good things about all three exhausts, so it's really personal preference.
Check out this thread for pics of all of them.
Happy hunting!

Ah who wants quiet!!!! lol jk that's just me. But the Greddy systems have always been one of the most quiet systems and always seem to still make the power, I would go Greddy before Borla.

Greddy EVO gets my vote. It quiet, but looks-wise, it still has a big tip. I believe they make a catback that is full stainless steel now, versus the older version, where the piping was pot metal. If you want to go with a stealthy looking exhaust that's quiet, the Borla Hush would do nicely.

Wow, i'm surprised that no one has mentioned the Prodrive axleback yet. I've got that mated to my turboxs stealthback w/ high flow cat, and it's sounds barely louder than stock, while the performance gains please the butt dyno.
Is it a 3'' catback?

The hush is the best, dont be fooled. It has great power gains and looks sweet. Almost like stock, but noticable when others are looking that it's not. It has good fitment with the stock pipes but a little trouble with aftermarket pipes. But the sound is unbeatable if you want a low rumble thats steady at high RPM's
