I'm also sticking with just the bypass pipes. Gives me the sound that should have come from the factory without being so loud that the neighbors can hear you coming from a mile away or complaints from family on long roadtrips. IMHO, ~$400 makes this a worthwhile mod, but ~$1200+ for a full cat-back is a little excessive just for making it louder with marginal inoticeable mprovement in performance over the pipes alone....unless , of course, you also mess with the programming .

The Fabspeed did come with all new bolts and gaskets so make sure the Leistung comes with it too so you will have all new stuff for the install.
This is the first I've ever heard of Leistung, I've left the bypass as the only modification as I believe it's an adequate improvement over the stock sound. It's an SUV, not a race car (at least for me).

I did both on my CS and within 48 hours got pulled over by the CHP and given a noise ticket. The car drove and sounded great, but it was definitely too much (I was scaring people in parking garages).

BTW, if anyone is interested, my Cargraphic exhaust is up for sale, only $999.
