Well besides the fact the CP-E is more expensive and they dont offer a race pipe (unless i'm missing something) and the DP includes a CAT (no CEL's :)

Are both systems equally the same as far as performance goes?

Pro's and Con's let me know thanks
 
CPE:
pros: one piece design, can have cat in it
cons: costs quite a bit more, couple people cats have went out...in which case you have send the whole DP back, and wait for them to send you a new one (they wont send you a new one, then you send the bad one back when you get it)

Corksport
Pro: Cheaper
Cons: two peice design (leaks?...mine doesnt leak), no Catted option

Performance should be virtually the same...Corksport utilizes divorsed setup which is supposed to be 'better'. You can always weld in a high flow cat into the corksport mid pipe (like me) and get a catted 3" exhaust system for still quite a bit cheaper than what CPE has.

Was like $86 for the cat (magnaflow, stainless steel metallic spun cat...similar to what CPE/Cobb use in theirs). Probably about 10-20 bucks to install
 
Is the high flow cat enough for you to pass emissions? I plan on getting the CS TBE and just replacing the RP with the stock MP for emissions if its necessary.

edit: you live in FL...cheater.
