Our goal is to develop the lightest weight, best sounding compromise of designs but if there is a significant division in the market between people wanting maximum power and torque vs. streetability, we have no qualms with splitting our development accordingly.
So please, by all means, chime in with your applications, your use of the car and the requirements therein so that we can determine how to divide and conquer for different segments of the market.

Personally, I'm looking for a system that does the following (in order of importance):
A) Makes power and torque
B) Maintains the cats for as much emission compliance as possible
C) Hopefully helps smooth out the dip o' death
D) Sounds aggressive, but not too loud
E) Looks fantastic
F) Saves some weight
This will be for daily driving and a bit of canyon carving. Track use will be almost non-existent on this car.
By the way, I can pretty much guarantee that the dip is not a placebo effect or imaginary (not sure what the actual numbers are, though), you can definitely feel it in day-to-day driving.
