Default Custom Exhaust system?

Ive seen them made. But i was wondering if getting a custom made exhaust system with no catalytic converter, would be better then the Blitz Nur Spec R. I also realize the if its made custom it could be diffrent the ways its welded and all. But if I went custom I wanted to go with Dual exhaust. Would this make me loose power. And is anyone has had a custom exhaust system, how much did it run you from?

I was thinking about just having it custom made 3 to dual 3 as you stated but just having a muffler with no catalytic converter. But what are you gonna do about the muffler mounting steel pieces, are you gonna get them made? and are you not gonna put a cat?

Opening up the exhaust will help you make more hp but, with the pretty good OEM exhausts on ours, it is not going to make a large difference because you have to feed it more air and fuel to do that. I opened up my exhaust and then started messing with the intake and injectors. Are you planning on tuning all of the other parts or are you just doing the exhaust?
