best exhaust setup

I'm looking to get my entire exhaust redone, front to back but can't decide on what to go with. As of now I plan on getting DC headers and I want dual exhaust tips. I'm leaning more towards performance and speed rather than sound, but of course sound is a big factor...I don't want it extremely loud like a civic, but with my v2 cai I'd like a pretty mean sound...any suggestions on brands and types would be appreciated...exhaust is one thing I don't know too much about...

If you want twin duals, go with ATLP for the CBE. For the j-pipe, go RV6-V3.

hands down, ATLP. its what i have been looking into but its a long path for me cuz i need to get a type-S rear body kit, get it painted CGP, then have it mounted. but you would need to get a Type-S bumper OR put on a Type-S body kit (after cutting up your original bumper). With this exhaust, you get sound and performance.

We also have a full exhaust lineup for the 3rd gen TL: j-pipe, high flow third cat or test pipe, and quad-tipped exhaust. You can see all the pics and pricing here:

I also say ATLP, j pipe, cat back and 3rd cat delete. The sound the look of the system and quality are top shelf. The quads do require a type s bumper or aspec rear but they work very well with the TL.
