NISMO vs. NISMO Catback?

the s-tune has larger piping throughout and it is just a tad bit deeper than the stock nismo exhaust. If I ws forced to give you my opinion, i'd say

the s-tune has larger piping throughout and it is just a tad bit deeper than the stock nismo exhaust. If I ws forced to give you my opinion, i'd say go for a used stock nismo system. Its cheaper and provides all the same results. I got my s-tune for a steal, which is why I have one, but if i didnt get it as cheap as i did, i would have gotten the stock nismo. Other than looking pretty, the s-tune isnt worth it.

I'm playing on buying a take-off NISMO exhaust from the forum if I continue to have issues with my Berk. I don't care about power as much as I do fit/finish and a bit nicer sound.

It falls off. The rear (muffler) hangers won't hold it up because it goes into them at such an angle and barely makes it into the grommets.

I am going to try to adjust it myself, I think I can correct it, maybe. If it's not due to install/correctable by adjustment, not sure what I will do. I have been in touch with Berk and they have been helpful thus far.
