I hear the Borla XR1 and the Burns stainless are high flowing pieces and are on the quieter side.

You might still need to hammer a little bit, even if they clear sitting still...drove a setup like that cross-country, and on bumpy roads it sounded (and felt) like a machine gun going off underneath the car. Got the seats pretty toasty, too.

Might not make a difference, but I personally wouldn't like all that unsupported leverage on a couple bolts in an aluminum head. Were you thinking about putting some exhaust mounts on at the mufflers, or just leaving them hanging? They'd eliminate the mufflers from hitting the bottom of the car on bumpy roads, and take a lot of load off the header bolts.

The 10 series single chamber flowmasters sound great. Mine are true duals back to behind the rear seats. No dump, just straight out of the muffler. They are pretty small in width/length. I am sure they could be tucked up right behind the collector.

U think the flowmasters would be louder than the bullets?

I've got one chamber Flowmasters on my CETA and they are a little quieter than the bullets I had before. To me the Flows sound a lot better than the bullets did
