Are you looking for sound, performance, or looks? Not that my opinion should make any difference but I like the first one. But it's probably loud as hell and performance may suffer (not enough back pressure).

BTW, my sister-in-law lives in Kaneohe, a few block from the mall.

Those are some crazy pipes tho!
Whats the overall look you going for too?
I like the 2nd one.
Oh yeah those pipes look like they're not made for O2 sensors, I would check on that.

I'm thinking the 2 into 1s they can put sensor bungs in them plus the sound would be a bit deeper.

I live behind the safeway...pretty close to the mall. I'm looking for sound over performance...than and something unique.

I like the 2-1. Get some O2 sensor bungs installed and black that baby out!

All I can say is neither of the two you posted. The crazy chopper exhaust is a dead fad. Go classic performance. DD Black Lowcat would be the only pipe I would even consider on a Blackline.
