What is your definition of "best"?

The most reliable brands are Yank, Vigilante, and Circle D. Don't know if this answers your question.

Default Conv...

All depends on what you are doing with your car, first off I don't like loose converter on the street killing my gas millage so here's what I did after talking to Dave, cause I plan to increase power to 525 whp n-a we decided the -PAS3,400c6a6- was the ticket, this is a power adder converter which drives crisp on the street but when you go for it goes to 5,000 plus and jams hard so too off the line.

I already go it and can't wait to install it, the OEM is a 12 1/4 inch od heavy monster this one is 9.5 inch it should do wonders for the ride in cahoots with the new Nitto NTO5R D/R 345 30 19 on the car now.
