Thats a tough ? to answar because there are many good/similar pieces out there.Your best bet is to snoop around at meets like our prior poker run,or nsxpo were every mod ever concieved will probably be represented.Then its down to subtleties like sound and apearence all subjective.I have the dc headers and ct intake and recently went to the taitec gt lightwieght wo cats;this setup is loud and knarly at certain rpm, racecar-like but I couldnt stand it as my only car/daily driver,I'm sure puttin the cats on will tone it down.most good manf. products will perform,it comes down to seeing and hearing for yourself.Good luck.

Yeah i know ....i missed a good opportunity
but i was so excited being that was my first nsx event i didnt think about it.I might give Larry B a call and pick his brains as this is all in preperation for the bbsc.

Why not give Mark Basch a call. I would assume he would be in the best position to answer your questions.

here's my setup and where I got em..

BBSC/DC Headers Combo from Dali Racing
Taitec GT Lightweight from SOS
Comptech Cat Bypass from BCobb

I ran the BBSC alone for a while before I saved up enough to pick up the exhaust system...

During the header/exhaust/bypass install, it sounded great in the garage.. But by the time I got home, my ears were bleeding..

After a week, I am used to the sound and but this is my daily driver and I feel that the exhaust volume is annoying to most people...

So.. the cats are going back in.. (only because it is my daily driver..)

I think it sounds incredible! I've heard a lot of exhausts and I think this combination is perfect..

IMO I think it sounds a lot better than Comptech/RM.

Talk to MJ and see if the BBSC/DC header combo is still available....

my $.02


BTW, I noticed intake.. my BBSC came with an intake designed to work with the SC. MB has a cold air upgrade coming to us, which may be in the BBSC kit you purchase. So may want to wait on that...
