Only Exhaust, no CAI??

Only Exhaust, no CAI??
Hi guys, I am new to acurazine and I've been going through some forums debating on which exhaust system to get for my 06 TL. I don't want anything that's crazy loud, seems like Comptech exhaust catback seems reasonable. Anyways, my question is does anyone have this setup or any other branded exhaust system but did not install a cai? Do you still get a nice tone or is cai highly recommended (for sound, not performance gains). I've been debating on an AEM cai as well just not sure I want to gain the risk of hydrolocking.

I think the exhaust tone gets slightly louder with CAI because of more air going in? or maybe just psychological. IMO I like the sound with stock intake and exhaust more =] or just CAI with stock exhaust +stage 1-3. Here are some comparisons:
WITH SOME GENERIC CAI AND ATLP EXHAUST:

WITH STOCK AIRBOX AND ATLP EXHAUST:

I don't like to hear the CAI hiss while trying to listen to the exhaust note, that's just me though. Hope this helped
