I went with the VRSF pipes (upgrade to ceramic) from Extreme Power house. Link below. Yes, I had to loosen the entire exhaust but that was a piece of cake. Removed the mounting bracket from the trans and loosened (maybe removed, I don't recall) the one at the rear (before the muffler), you have to do both or the exhaust won't move enough. Should take less than 10 minutes to do this. Then I wedged it back using a 2 x 4 which made installation of the new pipes easy once they were in.
