or is it good to live with? does it drone on the highway?
also i am debating this one over a hks catback, which has a deeper tone.
but realizing some threads saying that its leaking
anyone, which one should i get?

Leaking is from:

1) Poor installation
or 2) warped flange

99% of the leaking problems on the market are with poor installation.

Seriously, go on eBay. Save up for the stuff that matters. Buy a nice header and a tune.
