Yea and it made installation harder, but I still love it and it was cheap!

all the highflow cats make that hiss/vaccum sound under acceleration... even my vibrant header on my 8thgen made the same noise. but i will say once i switched to the the catless noise went away.

how much louder is it with the down pipe?
I got the downpipe at the same time I got the exhaust. But to my knowledge its *slightly* louder. It's more of a deeper tone though. But I can't exactly answer your question, sorry.
I had my exhaust first and after the DP the sound was a lot deeper but only a little louder

I didn't even realize the UR was a 2 piece design. Not gonna lie, it's seems a little nerving that there aren't any lug nuts holding the pipe to the connection mount. Any idea if that two piece design makes it any less of a contender against full race? I ask because I'm looking at doing a UR dp with a the 3"tsudo catback (when it comes out).

I never noticed that before. I do find it quite odd myself.
it didn't bother me, it was a bit harder to connect the two pieces together, but once it's bolted tight I don't see what could go wrong

Come to think of it, i guess you can just go to a hardware store and get the lug nuts there. What about performance? Any differences? Also in actual quality?
build quality is excellent, solid and well made, but still being light.
and for performance, I think the downpipe did the most of all the bolt ons, it definitely made the most difference according to my butt-dyno.

I would imagine they are actually comparable to each other.

At this point I guess it's just a matter of which gives a better exhaust which is preference in end.

Ya that seems to be the trend. It's a full FR setup
I think they are comparable.
if you were going to go with a full race exhaust, then I would match it with their downpipe.
But since you're going tsudo exhaust, then I would say UR just because of the price difference.
Also, I got my downpipe last year on cyber Monday, and got a great deal (about $150 off regular price)
Just FYI

I have the full race DP and cat back. She sounds so sexy! I love it! Most people think it sounds more like a European sports car compared to a civic. Def more bass in the sound than previous generations.
