I guess more so I was curious if you guys had any opinions or favored one over the other. I have been doing research and most people I talk to say go with AMS, but second opinions are always re-assuring. I also trust you guys more so. Has anyone done the install of a DP on a X? I read that it is very daunting.

josh has removed/replaced my ets dp/o2 like 2-3 times so i know he's good at it. it's not something for noobs or at least gives noobs a very hard time.

What are you talking about? You have an ETS exhaust, which is similar to the UR actually.

The test pipe he speaks of from ETS works very well for not throwing a CEL.

A. AMS Widemouth DP w/ Ichiba TP

I have the full ETS turboback with DP. I like the AMS DP the best out of them all. It's the best quality one on the market. If you've never seen one in person, it really is that nice. In fact, I may switch to an AMS at some point if I feel like I have money to burn. But I doubt if it actually will make any different power then my ETS.

The catback is just your preference of tips and sound. They all perform fairly well.

The Vibrant is far from quiet. John has one and I can't stand how it drones on the highway. It's obnoxious as hell.
