Why risk something custom made. thesae cars are to senstive to CELs and back pressure. I recently did a write up for the gen 3 mufflers. Let me know if you can't find it and I will send the link.

There is a method to the exhaust design madness, you want to buy one thats been made after a proven R&D process to keep noise levels (drone), EGT's and CEL's in check. this does not mean that a custom one is bad, just that you are rolling the dice so to speak.

IMO I would pick one from proven manufacturers and narrow it down to the one that sounds best to you.
