Default 1 Last exhaust question (Miltek vs APR resonation)

When I used to have a thermal exchaust on my integra it was loud and it resonated throughout the car, bothering my ears on long drives...I would literally have to blow out like a scuba diver when I got out of my car. The question is does APR Or milltek do that crap? Resonate throughout the car, bothering your ears??

Default milltek is the quieter of the two (i have no experience on the A4)

On the S4 it is quieter...

Default milltek is quieter than the APR by a bit. On hard WOT it isn't much louder than a stock S4 setup.

Deep, quiet, and smooth. I haven't had any issues with the sound going through the cabin and causign you to have to pop your ears.

My APR definitely does not do that. With my stereo on, I forget I even have it.

Default milltek is almost dead silent when staying at a constant speed

such as on highway drives, you can only hear the growl when you accelerate or start to decelerate/down shift.
