The CTI should produce the most power and torque, and there haven't been ANY complaints that I've seen from anyone who has it.

*Edit: Just realized it said "one more downpipe" not header.

you really dont want a catless DP installed by a dealer, they cannot remove emission eqpt unless it is being replaced for warranty....

I had it done thru CTI as an option
I would put a cat on for warranty unless you have a cool dealer beyond cool
If you have the dealer modivy the cat they will probably void your emissions and powertrain wty

***** builds the CTI headers to order, so expect at least a week to 10 days for delivery, but you get an excellent product. worth the extra price and wait IMO. I gained about 13 hp and 5 tq with my setup (before tuning, 26 hp/ 12 tq total gains after), but it definately woke the car up. I've got the dp w/cat and it's loud enough already, can't imagine how loud it would be without...

The downpipe is something I am completely undecided on as well
Doing the GMPP manifold with my GMPP catback, but not sure about the downpipe. May leave it stock for a while
