Default what exhaust in 2021

Can't quite believe I'm asking this, but what exhausts are people running nowadays?

I've currently got a concoction consisting of a scoobyworld downpipe (with sports cat), mated to a miltek 2.75" centre + backbox. Unfortunately, the miltek is quite loud, at least for an old fart like myself, and it also makes an annoying rattle now (loose shield somewhere inside it).

It needs to be track friendly, and also neighbour friendly. At the moment I don't even want to take the car out for drives in case I come home too late in the evening, and / or if I have to leave early, because it vibrates the whole house. Noise-wise, the absolute maximum I'd want to go to is really the old prodrive system I had - it measured 88db on static noise test.

I was originally looking at used ones, but prices are crazy, so almost feels as if I might as well buy new...

Doesn't need to support loads of power - 350hp would be enough.

Jetex/Revolution. Or Simons as they're called here in Sweden. Silent for a 3" but I've added a small Vibrant resonator as it was a bit too raspy for my taste with just a backbox. It's nice to have a exhaust that doesn't drone.

Is it worth trying to mate a H&S cat and mid- pipe to the prodrive backbox that should add performance without being too loud. My hatch is currently prodrive backbox, H&S midpipe and oem cat, which isnt too loud, soon to be changed for a H&S cat.

The jetex / revolution is a good shout, however I have had a revolution at some point in the past, and tbh I didn't find it particularly quiet I think I might go to a 2.5" section again, as the 3" exhausts end up with quite a deep note (IMO).

@rusti: yes, I should have never gotten rid of the prodrive setup :-\ I see scoobyworld have some mid-pipes with a big resonator box, but it's for "all the pounds" (271 to be precise, for the centre section only): http://scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/pro...oducts_id=5030
