Your head....

 

DTM = All mouth and no trousers

 

Expect to loose all top end power and most of your low down torque, oh and the bottom of your exhaust pipe on every speed bump.

 

After all that and you still want a DTM, then it all depends on the size of the bore, you may need a larger centre pipe.

If you want one, get one. 

 

I'm not saying i'd have one, i hate them. I have the same set up as you now, because i'm more about the power. That's my preference. If you want loud and proud, get a DTM. If you want performance stick with what you got chap

Single Box Maniflow/RC40 left exit sounds far better than a DTM IMO and wont rob the torque low down and cost you BHP either, DTMs are just to flat a note and very loud
