IMO, you're still better off with a system like the Apexi WSII. It has plenty of flow capacity for minor bolt-ons and it does a much better job of managing sound at highway speeds.
Yea, I'll probably go with the WSII, will it work well with 2.5" mandrel-bent piping? Thats what I was thinking of getting.
