Default X-Pipe All the same??

Are there some that are better than others? I looking at Corsa,Borla and Bassani.
Did a search not much info. I have TPIS headers and Corsa Indys.
The problem I'm having is the pipe that bolts to the muffler before the axle. That flange has broken loose and the muffler is loose. Maybe I can get it welded?
Thanks in advance

I have always used Bassani. Top notch quality that can rarely be beat.

They are all the same but the designs are just slightly different.Ever if Brand A made 1 more HP than brand B its not like you will notice that 1 HP difference.Only reason why designs are different is so brand A and brand B don't create direct copies of each other.
