dont know how helpful the scaling will be when everyone's scaling is different and most people heard only their own exhaust in person and stock.
its best to check youtube videos and pick the one you like most

There is cars and coffee in my area. Ill have to drop by and talk to some people.

After listening to the comparison videos, the MADE motorsports single exit is the exact tone I want. YouTube videos make it sound not terrible loud and the quietest of single exits since it has 2 resonators.
I cannot wait for your next post: 'catless downpipe for sale - too loud with grapefruit shooter single'

Maybe a Supra GTS 2023 MT, Kia Stonic GT, Mazda CX5 GT SP
Hi All, looking for some input here to help me make a decision. I have a 2026 3.0 premium manual trans. Looking for ballpark estimates on noise level of the following exhaust setups. For a scale, I am calling stock exhaust in sport mode as 100%, and if a setup is twice as loud, call it 200%. I am unsure what the quietest single exit is, so looking for opinions on this too. Appreciate any input.

Stock w/ valve open = 100%
Stock DP w/ AWE touring (none resonated) = ???
AA Catted DP w/ AWE touring (resonated) = ???
AA Catted DP w/ stock exhaust = ???
Stock DP w/ quietest single exit = ???
AA Catted DP w/ quietest single exit = ???

Here, I posted a video of a straight piped supra driving around town. See............ I told you it's not that loud. Don't be such a puss, go straight pipe.

While I do enjoy the idea of that post title, the thread itself would be entertaining. I dont plan to go catless, in the end am planning AA catted downpipe.

dude, just talk to some local Supra owners at a weekly Cars & Coffee in your area and ask to hear/listen to their car. I get why you posted but at the end of the day, it's really difficult for us to truly quantify this stuff. We can say "this exhaust is louder than that one", but even then that's pretty subjective. And I'm old, so tones probably sound different to me than 20-30 yr olds. My custom straight pipe isn't that loud to me, but to other Supra owners, it's extremely loud.
your car is straight piped!? I never would have guessed. It’s not that loud. Maybe because it exits straight down under the car?

That's exactly it. When it used to shoot out the rear, it was much louder.
Huh, my 370 with long tube headers had an exhaust cutout before the mufflers that pointed downwards undernear the middle of the car making it straight piped when open, and it was loud as a mf (granted NA vs turbo), I'm surprised it's quiet with your setup.
