Default Best exhaust for low end torque

I have system with headers and 1 back box, but when I mounted it I always missed some low end torque.

​Before that I had stock heat exchangers, cat, cup pipe and the secondary muffler which had more low end torque.

What would be the best option, engine is stock.

Steve Weiner recommended just a G-pipe and chip for a slight increase in low end power.

Do you have a tune on the car to adjust for the exhaust? I have a pretty free flowing setup and there is a lot of grunt down low.

Curious to know a few things about it if I may?

Did you go with single or dual outlet? heat or no heat? any idea if they'll sell with a cat bypass and a cat for those of us that maybe need to run one or another at various points of the year? Actually worth the cost of a used Explorer 1?

I went with the single outlet with heat and no cats. because no cats the heat is not strong. I don't drive it in the winter so all I need is a little heat for defrost

This was the config I was hoping to go for. $5200 for an exhaust is just such a hard pill to swallow.

go to FVD Porsche tuning & accessories to check out the systems. mine is the sport system with heat. at the time I spent 4200.00 for it because I have a shop and got a discount. they went up now on the systems. when I did it I wanted the best system because I hate doing something then end up upgrading after and wasting the money. I like to do it once the best I can. If I had to do it again I would of put the cats. what you see in the picture that looks like cats is the heat exchangers.

No, I don't have a tune for it.

5200 is a bit to much for just road use, but thanks
