Default Borla sound question

I'm just digging into exhausts and I loved the Borla I had on my old 928. Really woke it up. I also really like the sound of the classic Borla stinger, mostly the dual tip version. Since my car is a daily/road trip car, drone (and wife happiness) is a concern. If you compare the sound of the stinger with the S-Type II and ATAK versions, which is closest to the sound of the stinger?

I'm also hoping they can be had with the dual tips instead of the quads, which will require a phone call. I just like the look of the duals.

I sold my Borla SType 2. That is there newest exhaust. I put my Ti’s back on. It got to be too loud with having headers. It was not bad going thru the gears but on the highways keeping it at 65 or 70 just got to be too loud inside the car.

That thread is exactly why I posted this one. Borla did a nice job with that video, but they should have included the classic for a full comparison. I'm just wondering if the newer exhausts sound similar to the stinger, without the drone.
