Dinan Vs. Tri-Flo Exhaust (archive)

Anyone have any quick comparative opinions on the Dinan exhaust vs. the BB Tri-Flo for my 540 6-speed? The archives search isn't working.

From an install/cost perspective,
The Tri-Flo is supposedly a bolt-on application, though I haven't seen app notes yet (nor any HP gain). It IS cheaper, by about $300 (considering Dinan's requires welding and I'd pay them for the install.) However, I live about 1 mile away from Dinan's headquarters and it could be done quickly by a shop I know and trust. If the Tri-Flo would require being put up on a lift (rather than just jack stands), I'm going to have to incur the labor expense either way.

TIA,
