+2 on the Akrapovic. I've been looking around but no one wants to budge on price.

Quality wise Akrapovic definately looks like a high quality craftsmanship, and the fact the BMW uses it too, that's a plus.

Like was mentioned before, you get what you pay for.

I feel as if none of these online videos do any justice for these exhaust systems... I mean the videos don't sound bad at all, however, in person its so much more amazing! Full Akra is awesome and top notch esp with that price :/
Def need an exhaust just don't know which one to pull the trigger on.

Might as well go with Akrapovic. I looked at their instruction pdf file, step by step with pictures. Definately looks like a high quality product with great support and instructions.

Sorry for the noob questions: catless downpipes refer to system without catalytic converters? I did read somewhere that there is a slight improvement in performance with the catless downpipes. Is it legal not to have catalytic converters?

Thanks in advance.
