I have a Perrin 2.5 and I was looking for the same quality is mentioned. From my research I don't believe the Perrin 2.5 is any less restrictive than stock, in fact if I recall correctly they state it has less restriction than stock.
Weight difference is minor. I'm not as familiar with the HKS but I love the Perrin it looks totally stock, the whole catback feels very high quality with no drone and the perfect sound, at least for me. |

I think when I made my descision last year I wanted the exhaust stock style to fill in the area behind the bumper so I didn't have parachute effect. But the exhaust shield is light only 1lb and easy to make into a cover plate for that area.

I'd recommend the HKS Legamax Sport, but it is roughly the same weight as stock. It does sounds great, with a nice burble, and flows well too. HKS describes it as quiet yet high flow. Though I do like the sound of the Spec-L too.

I was referring to something on this post here which just lowers the stock heat shield to block the air from getting up behind the rear bumper. I think anyone going to a cannon style exhaust should be doing this at least. Some of the pics don't work but you should get the idea http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=73852 |

I love my Ace Laguna 90. Maybe even a little quieter than stock but that noise reduction comes not from brute force damping, but rather the higher frequencies are canceled through clever design. It breaths beautifully.

That is a very interesting one for sure. It is not light at 33 lbs ((8.7+2.2+4)/0.454) but sounds very good. I am confused about the flow part of design though. With that much complicated piping, inlets, outlets, and joints, the flow seems to be rather restricted to me. |

Even standing far behind it one can feel more woof than hear bark.
