The Apexi WS would probably be the quitest. It has a silencer that can be installed to quite it down even further, or pulled out for increased performance. Ive even read one post where someone said it was TOO quite, and they didnt like it, but if quite is your thing, I would go for the Apexi. Just my $.02

The quietest option would be to go to a local muffler shop and have them make a mandrel-bent b-pipe from the cat and keep your stock muffler. This works best if you have a y-pipe and high-flow cat.
