Cat Bypass pipes

seen many using the Fabspeed cat bypass pipes. Any reason for the Supersprints being less popular at $100 less for basically the same pipes?

Miykl,
This past weekend I drove a 996 with Cargraphic exhaust & suncoast headers with the Fabspeed bypass pipes and it was ridiculously abnoxious.
If you plan on driving your car on the road, do not do this mod.
My 993 has bycat bypass pipes btw. This 996 with the headers was 10X louder.
