they are all loud hehe. i have the Fireball Style with custom piping. i also have the silencer. i had to get used to it with the silencer first then took it off. in the end, i'm glad i got it. looks exactly like what i wanted for alot less and HP gain is more than noticeable. especially on the high end. i have a 5th gen though. there's a guy named DEEZ on either this site but definitely on hondasociety .com with duals on his 2000 cause he has a v6 and i have some vid clips of it.

go to hondasocity.com and do a search under the name "muffler" then you will see some threads about 5 zigen. and like zidek_accord mentioned, there's a dude, called Deez, who has 2 custom 5 zigen on his 4 cyl and he video taped them on driving. from what i know, 5 zigen is neither loud nor deep. if u like louder exhaust, go with Tanabe Racing Medalian, or for deeper tone, Greddy SP or Evo

The Sp is pretty queit, if not that go with the tanabe SP(i think thats what its called) its either that or super medallion, very close to stock sound, with a nice little growl and sleeper look. if not goodluck on anyone of your pruchases man.

but the greddy's dont look like the fireball or the racing medalion.... and is it quieter to just get the muffler instead of the full catback? i read somewhere someone said its louder if you get the catback. so i'm lookin for something that looks like the fireball buts got a nice deep rumble... and if i have to sacrifice loudness for a nice deep tone... so be it... but its hard for me to tell what the exhaust would sound like without it actually being on my car... thanks for the help

i got the fireball on my 4cyl... i'm really happy with it.. it got a pretty low deep tone, and it's only loud when you really step on it, so there's no constant buzz.. i only have the axleback so it may be different for a full catback.. check out pics below:
