I don't know much about exaust and doing a car up right.. I just know my garage put a stainless borla and said it had a header back with test pipes instead of cats. Either way would I get better sound and power with high flows

it really depends. with test pipes you will lose some low end torque (what gets you moving) but gain some high end power.... with HFC you will get some low end torque but lose some on the top end

^ I've got the TDX2+art pipes. In this vid. the car is wrapped up pretty well (140/5th gear), but this setup is great around town too; many, many compliments and questions regarding the Motordyne. Street driving it's deep/low tone, but gets aggressive with just a little touch of the pedal. I'd definitely recommend this for your car.

* The Z goes past approx. 10 sec. after the 2 vehicles go by.

I've had a Gemini with Berk high flow cats for almost 2 years now. Love this setup. The Gemini alone sounded good but I was wanting a little louder song. The taste in exhaust is very subjective, but I haven't heard a better result than Invidia.

surprised no one has brought up stillens true dual...nice rumble at cruise and wakes up at high rpm. Has a little rasp at high rpms with test pipes though...I sorta liked the rasp at the higher rpms(say 5500 rpm +) but thats just me...

This isn't a quiet system and can be some drone in the cab in some conditions like going up a hill (in traffic for example) while held in a certain gear/rpm, but when you apply the pedal whether it's around town or on the open road it is guaranteed to put a smile on your face time and again. The "shockwave" lives up to it's name; I can pick out my car 1/2 mile away when a friend is getting on it a bit. It's the low note that carries a long way; every time I get on the freeway I feel like patting myself on the back.
