I hope you're using a 185 tstat, and I've had a lot of trouble keeping the airstream going into the engine dust free with the vram. The big stuff it catches, but the dirt and dust can get by. I've tried using sticky foam sealer, duct tape, and other means, but the dust will get by.

Disagree. Stock ti catback is great with headers. Quiet most of the time, with a nice bark at WOT. Also the lightest catback, aside from straight pipes. If you want to avoid drone, it's non-existant with the tis, even if you decide you want more volume, and do the "ti-mod" later.

I use a 160 in my car and so has thousands of others......no issues.
