Should I put my stock exhaust back on?

ok I have the Pacesetter cat-back and am getting kind of tired of the look of it. I much prefer the single tipped exhaust of the stock mufflers. My question is, should I put the stock system back on? Right now I also have gutted precats and a high-flow cat as far as exhaust, will I notice a big decrease in power do you think from moving back to stock from the pacesetter system?

the decrease in hp probably wouldnt be noticeable

it would probably sound a little tamer, but i dont know havent heard the pace setter system, the single tips would probably look real nice on your car, your car is freaking awesome looks nice

Well the only report I have seen on pacesetter was when they did a test to find which was the best header on an integra. The pacesetter header actual made the integra loose hp and torque. No offense but I think pacesetter pretty much sucks. If you want power and some nice flames then go with the Apex N1. But definately go back to the stock exhaust I like the looks of it better than the pacesetter. Has anyone notice that alot of things ryhme with pacesetter...oh well I dont know what I am talking about

the stock exaust sounds the best and flows well.i wish i had mine.loud exausts are annoying and make you look to juvenile and low class and besides did you notice?you drive faster in a car thats quieter.

well I put my stock exhaust back on and here are my thoughts.....

I can feel a little bit of missing power but not a lot. However the sound is WONDERUL!!! My gutted pre-cats plus high flow cat through the stock mufflers sound incredible, nice and sexy. I may leave my exhaust this way. I absolutly love the volume of it. Not too quiet, yet not too loud. I'll see if I can live with the missing 4-5 HP or so the Pacesetter system gave.
