Well, any money I save on the CBE, I can invest in other mods. Sure at the end of the day maybe the 18" res FI CBE is the best pairing and maybe that's what I'll do.
However, by looking at the other exhausts, they are pretty similar to my eye from a flow perspective and if I can save $$$ by going w/a cheaper brand, get decent power #s and sound, then why not ... ?
Its sort of like the argument w/CAI vs stock airboxes. I've seen arguments for both sides and I decided to do drop ins and post MAF hoses. Probably just as good performance as the CAI for a lot cheaper (IMO, open to argument of course, but based on all the threads I've read, not a bad move in the near term).
So, I'm just trying to do the same from the exhaust side. The FI LTH are a great deal, I think that's a super wise buy - but the exhaust pairing, I'm just not convinced that I must go FI CBE ... (though I might - just looking for input...)
