You said it.... only two options. I would go with RV6.
I'm tucking on Tein SS and went with ATLP V2 because it was the only option when I was in the market.

both should sit higher up than the lowest part of the car...so you should be good either way. jpipe doesnt really change the sound, so no difference there. the big thing is whether you want to delete the third cat. atlp if not, rv6 if yes.

J-pipes have minimal changes to the exhaust noise.

For performance wise, I'd choose RV6 V3 in a heartbeat.
And for Customer Service, I'd choose RV6 also.

Richie has been working diligently to provide a great exhaust and J-pipe. When the competitors were beating him and talking about "exhaust scavenging", he thought to himself, "What can I do to make my products better"? Well that is what he did and always have been doing for us.

This is really the only deciding issue. Other than that, they're pretty similar to each other. FWIW, I'm on Tein SS's that are about 1/4" from being maxed out, and I haven't had any contact with my ATLP v2 j-pipe.

As everybody mentioned, it's either ATLP V2, or RV6.

No offense OP but have you ever heard of a period? You post was a little tough to read.

Anyways. Like most have said, in order to gain maximum ground clearance you'll need to delete the 3rd cat. Go with the RV6.

ok thanks, but im gearing towards rv-6 but if i remove the 3rd cat then i will basically get the j-pipe plus the pcd then or im mixing it up. Or the 3rd cat would be removed and replaced with a straight pipe correct me if im wrong.

I have owned the RV6 V2 combo and the now the RV6 V3 Jpipe and the clearance is great for slammed cars. I currently drop on Tein SS and with the RV6 V3 I dont need to worry much. The customer service is great with Richie.
