I feel you on the j-pipe dude, I have my heart set on RV6's in the future but I still need to do my research on them.

Same here Charles, so many things to take into consideration when searching for the right sound you want.

Big spender, Sick!! That true dual will be bad ass no doubt, but too much $$ for me! lol I probably will get the j-pipe and that's about it. Maybe a mid muffler delete or something.

Just keep reading on it, I had no idea either until I kept reading the threads and then the facts from the vendor's websites. There is still stuff I don't understand though.

RV6 V3 deletes the 3rd cat.

Hurry, edit it again!

ive never had my car dyno'd but my butt dyno tells me that it definitely makes more power. from my understanding, it frees up horsepower by making the exhaust gas flow easier. Also, it gives the car a throatier sound because the 3rd cat is gone. if any of that is wrong Austin or anyone else, correct me haha

Here's the link to RV6's jpipe.

http://rv6-performance.com/index.php...mart&Itemid=66

From what I've been reading it seems RV6's has more gains in the higher RPM's and XLR8's has more low end power gains. I could have those mixed up though, vise versa.

and the clearance, from what i read, is better for lowered cars for the rv-6 jpipe vs xlr8 or others.
