Exhaust setup for Satria 1.3

[S16]

Hi friends... Need your help here... Im using Satria 1.3, model year 2000...

Current exhaust setup: 4-2-1 extractor, twisted mid bullet & sgti-style back muffler (if not mistaken, its S-flow) with standard size of piping... (basically can feel the pick up after the 2nd shift onwards)

Im KINDA satisfied with the setup, but another exhaust guy suggesting straight-flow mid bullet with 1.6' piping with, others remain as same... He told that this setup can give good pick up (from 1k-3k rpm)...

Here is the conflict, should I remain with the current exhaust setting or opt to new setting???

fyi, I drive 65% at town & city, 35% at highway...

Help me guyz... If there is better suggestions, kindly tell and guide me... The fuel consumption must be economical too... I don't wanna simply waste the money as I have spent RM550 for my previous setup...

Thanx a lot in advance friends...

hi ,
im driving same car with u too , same cc but carburator . currently using 4-2-1 , straight flow with mid bullet with 1.7" piping . Yes , u can get pick up for the 1st and 2nd gear but the top speed for it was damn sucks . before that i can get 170km/h with my standard exhaust system , even without extractor . and now i hardly archieve more than 140km/h . and the FC is terrible , rm60 RON95 can only get to travel around 220-260km city driving . if im not wrong , the standard size of ur piping is 1.5 , just increase to 1.6" or 1.7" but dont do straight flow . or not u'll lost in perfomance and also $$ cause of the FC was damn terrible .
im planning to do back s-flow . beh tahan already .
just my 2cent , correct me if im wrong .
enjoy ur ride
