Alta Sounds clips?

Hey, I'm looking into getting an exhaust and i know everyone will tell me to go with the milltek but that just isnt enough for me.. i narrowed it down to the Borla Race or the Alta Sport-tone but it seems like all of the sounds clips i try to find for the Alta are with the 2.5" piping..

What is the sound of the 3" diameter Alta system?
Does anyone have any clips or first hand advice on the Alta 3" Sport-tone?

This is from my dyno last Saturday. It is hard to hear the exhaust because of the direction of the dyno.

It is for sure deep with and throaty. I need an exhaust that is dead quiet for work. I talk way too much on the phone while I drive. PM me if you want to buy it.
