ultra quiet exhaust? what's dat, all aftermarket exhaust are pretty loud! mayb just by a nice but cheap muffler.
As for port and polishing-"The engine production process is not perfect. Imperfections in the casting of parts leads to rough surfaces. A port usually involves remove/changing the size/shape of an opening. A polish smoothens the surface. The overall combination flows more than stock. Thus yielding better power."

For performance mods, 2Gs will be a waste of time and money if yo do not intend to modify the exhaust... exhaust is the most basic mod one can do to ANY car, apart from the air filter... if you want an ultra quiet exhaust, stick to the factory job.
Remember, the more spent exhaust gases can escape, the easier it'll be for the engine to make more power as there is less restriction.
