Default GC8 - which exhaust?!

Hello all, I have a V5 Type R which is destined for a new exhaust but I can't work out what to go for and was hoping for some advice.

I think I'm set on a Hayward & Scott but can't decide on whether to go for the Group A replica or the more subtle Scoobyworld back box. The JDM after market job that's on there at the minute is a one-piece effort so it'll need a middle section too. I want the moon on a stick a bit in wanting 'pops and bangs' without excess droning or chav-bating noise. Would the Group A with a resonated mid fit the bill or should I go with the subtler back box and a straight-through pipe?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated. I've tried looking through YT but the low-res recordings don't offer much in the way of help.

Never seen anything wrong with (forgive me for saying it) the Japspeed offerings.

Group A replica..looks and sounds superb.. ive had 2..one on my old sti ra and one on my old jdm bug sti.

if it wasnt for me then this replica backbox wouldnt have been around as i were the one who spoke to H&S about putting one together in the first place.

I have a custom powerflow system that sounds nice.

Thanks @powerwrx - Looks great mate - it's definitely leading the running. Do you have a straight through? Am thinking about running it with a resonated centre.

@jaygsi I've had a look at their website and they look proper. Money-wise, was it much more than buying off-the-shelf?
