Borla or Stillen True dual Exhaust?/

I know the stock muffler isn't straight through but for the purpose of flow comparison, just use the area of the pipe's section.
In that case I would estimate the Stillen to be a little higher. Maybe 55-60%. Does anyone know the pipe size on the Stillen? I would guess 2 1/2" I believe the Borla is 2 1/4".

^^^+1, Stillen pipes is 2 1/2" all the way.
Has anyone look inside the Borla first muffler/resonnator? Is it a straight through with perforation, or does it has a crossover (H-pipe)? Crossover help equalize the exhaust pressure, improving flow. Kinda like scavanging effect.
Off topic, but on the Z32 w/o crossover, it sound like two 3 cylinder engine. Kinda like first gen Viper w/side pipe, two 5 cylinder. Both sound like @ss. This doesn't apply to the Borla as much because the two banks share the same muffler.

Wow 13lbs and 21-23 hp and ftlb gains!
So that's why you are selling yours?
