Default DC Exhaust vs. Blitz Exhaust

Does any one have any experience with both the Blitz exhaust and the DC exhaust.

i've read quite a bit about the DC but not much about the Blitz.

How do they compare sound wise? Is one deeper - quieter - throatier than the other?

The Blitz has a silencer to make it street legal...does anyone know if this decreases the hp gain?

Fitment...is one easier to install than the other?

i'm planning on installing the DC header at the same time...is there any benefit to have the same company's exhaust as header?

Finally i was reading about the DC scorching the bumper that seems very bad to me (bare with me....this will my first mod on a car..ever)... does anyone have a Blitz that has or has not scorched the bumper?

Thanks!

Usually you get better results staying with the same company, because they are designed to work together. But overall it doesn't matter that much usally just 1 to 2 horses....

I put the header, strut tower bar and exhaust on in about 1 hour with lift access.

Don't forget the donut in the stock header ;)

hey socal with all the mods you have does it have respectable performance for the money? I really want the header also but not if it doesn't make a difference.

becarefull, too much flow and you can lose power.
Cat-back system-good
Manifold back system-verygood
Hedder and manifold back system- loss of low end power, great high end though!!

To compensate for the flow , we need to mod the engine for more HP. Remember that we let our cars breathe for the HP that we have. By the way magna flow does have killer systems. :D
