Exclamation OBX or weapon R?

For about the same price I could get a weapon R header that keeps the cat or I could get the complete OBX header system that has a "high flow cat".....Ive searched and found that the weapon R header adds a nice boost of low end torque but I have not been able to fing a dyno graph with the OBX. Given the simular price, which one should I go with for daily driving? What about for the track?

Is the OBX downpipe a Hi-Flo Cat or just a resonator like the Megan one?

I've read that OBX headers are crap. Leaks and not fitting right are the complaints I've seen most.

I would just go with a Megan Product if your not looking to spend alot of money but still get decent performance. Not sure anyone on these formuz has any OBX products for their FIT's?
Other then that I would go with Weapon R!! hope this helpz.

get the weapon r if you want more low end torque (better drivability) 421 proven technology. no increase in sound and touch and go gas pedal
