As for if its a cat-back or not I will get back to you on that.
Well, this bit of info changes things a lot. As far as looks, you can't go wrong with the Ti exhausts, they look the best by far, IMO.

Well this is what I meant, I am going to only put an Intake, Exhaust and Grounding Kit before I start work on the body and interior. After I do my entire interior and add a body kit and add stuff to my engine bay, I am going to come back to the performance side. So pretty much after its a show car I am going to start adding other stuff like cam gears and pulleys and fine tune the fuel for performance gains. The only exception to that is I'm going to add the GReddy Turbo Kit as soon as it comes out and I can get one.

Default 15 Pounds....

All the discussions about adding 10 - 20 lbs. don't make much sense. 15 - 20 lbs. being added doesn't make much of a difference considering what gets added when you put 20" wheels & tires. Volks at that size are still over a 1lb. per inch. Plus, add the stereo and other items. I think to concentrate on 15 pounds is a bit of over-analyzation IMO. The torque that most of these exhausts add blows the 15 or even 20 lbs. of additional weight into obscurity. That's kind of like worrying about the turbo adding weight - and you don't put it on. I can understand if you start adding the various items up it makes for a good number... but you can't reasonably expect to keep your weight at factory levels and add equipement. You just have to outpower the weight. Shoot if you're worried - strip the interior padding, sound deadening, and composite materials out.... that'll save you some serious weight.. Don't mean to get off an a rant. Just my useless opinion..

I've owned both exhausts, but of the two I've enjoyed the Injen one the most. It has a better sound and it's also several pounds lighter. However, I think the Stillen exhaust is better engineered than the Injen exhaust.

I am thinking about not doing a show car. I bought the Borla True Dual. I am going all performance first so the car looks stock and I have a better chance of not getting pulled over. Then I am going to don Body and interior after I get the Turbo in. Thanks for the help. I still might change to Veilside after I am done with everything and then go show.

I didn't know that......seriously. No one told me about that. I was also looking at the Veilside Titanium Teardrop exhaust.
Are torque numbers available for these exhaust systems?

The Veilside gained 6rwhp with just bolting on the cat back exhaust. No intake was used for the test, and the cat remained for the test...unlike other's that claim a 20hp gain.

I have a video clip of the exhaust i can email. It's too large to post on here.
