Question about Nameless Performance exhaust

I'm looking to get an exhaust from Nameless but I'm not sure what to get so am looking for a bit of advice.*

*It is between the [BRZ-2-5-street-axleback-and-high-flow-cat-package] and the *[BRZ 2.5" Street Axleback and High Flow Cat Package (Replaces Overpipe)].*

The latter is about 80 bucks more but both specify the same gains. Is it worth it to replace the overripe too? I may end up getting their header too when it becomes available - would that make a difference? *Should I hold off on replacing the overripe until I get the header? Sounds like the overripe install requires jacking up the engine.

Thanks in advance - - I asked on heir website too but there aren't any reviews there, but this site has lots of opinions.*

It wasnt too much harder to install and i only needed to jack up the engine a small amount. I wasnt really sure if it was worth it but once i had the stock overpipe in my hands i was happy i got the nameless overpipe.

Stock overpipe=trash

Why so? Do you find that there is too much drone without it?

I found pretty much no drone with the downpipe/axleback setup. But- headers make the car drone. so I feel that the resonator is needed for that route, unless you don't care about volume.

How do you add the resonator to the order? I got as far as shipping details but didn't see the option to add the resonator.

Just drop it in the notes section of your order.

What is the cost? If I put it in he notes how does the total get updated? I guess I need to just see what happens. It would be nice if there was an option to add.

Thanks

@Jason@Nameless can chime in on this... I would be interested too in the resonator, but would also like to see video with sound and it installed. Or at least confirmation of how it changes the sound of the already posted videos.

I am actually ready to buy the exhaust too.

I am also curious about this, what is the difference if any in sound and performance between the two options.

That is what I'm worried about. I want to make sure it is specified in the order.
