21 at the wheels, no

8-12, no

5-7, maybe.

midpipe + SP2 = REALLY LOUD

RP Supercat + SP2 = more controlled sound

A racepipe is a racepipe, no best no worst, the differences are very small. Just pick the one you like but have in mind you will be LOUD!! hehe

Maybe the best race pipe is the flexible corrugated pipe use for A/C & heating.

If you can find the correct size you can DIY.

It ill be lighter than everything else on the market.

The one that comes with a free set of earplugs. Seriously if you are going to be pairing it up with the Greddy exhaust you ears might bleed.
