I think I'm going to stick with the JBA's. Not real sure about the OBX's. Appears they don't really have cats, just resonators. Don't really wan't to go without. I wonder if how hard it would be to put in true highflow cats instead of the resonators?
I don't really know how the two compare for over all street drivability and which does which. I hear the JBA's do a pretty good job throughout the range. I think the long tubes give you more low end.

hmmm, I didn't realize that. I need to look into it more. I don't want to have any issues with cats/CEL... Does anyone know the performance gains from these? These do seem to be a good do it yourself type kit and option for me...

One other question related to the OBX option, I assume this would be plug and play. Or would I need a tune? If I went with this option I would like to not do anything else for some time. (possible muffler change in the future).

Ok, Thanks for the input,I did some checking around here in my town and found a muffler shop,They side that I can use high flow cats and doaway with the resanators,(he called them precats) and the shop can weld all this up for about 400 bucks. so thats half the price from the auto store and I don't have to get dirty.
