Borla ATAK = Overrated - What else should I get?

So I am moving on to my third exhaust for my 2013 V6. I started with the Borla Touring, I got it for a good price, the moment I put it on, instant regret. Definitely better than stock, just not very loud. I traded for the ATAK's. Found a guy that had the ATAK's but after he added the LT and X-pipe, it was way too loud. Now the ATAK's were louder but I didn't think they were that aggressive unless you were over 3000 RPM. I definitely think Borla looks the best. the 4.5" tips are amazing. The quality is fantastic. Zero drone. I can see why they cost more than some of the others. However, it is not as loud as I wanted. I messed around with driving around without the mufflers in between exhausts. It is too unrefined and drones like crazy. I've been looking at the Roush as well as Magnaflow Comps. What exhaust do you guys have? What sounds aggressive?

I think you're spending entirely too much money to reach a sound that just isn't possible. I've seen a lot of video on the ATAK's and they sound pretty amazing.

If you think ATAK suck don't bother with Roush.

My ex-wife sounds aggressive, but only if you're keeping her from eating (and believe me when I say that you don't want to be standing between her and a meal).

Go with the magnaflow comps. I have the catback and love them. Theres some drone though. Other than that youre gonna have to start your own company and engineer your sound

I have a pair of Magnaflow Competition axle backs. They are louder than the videos show. My wife didn't like them (too loud) so i put my Street Series back on

Street series. Love them. With headers and mid pipe they will really wake up too.
