Help me choose the best exhaust for me

Is the Ford Performance exhaust (the one made by Borla) the only aftermarket exahaust that integrates the valve functionality with the drive mode selector?
No, there are a few actually. The Magnaflow, Milltek, Thermal R&D, Full Race, Scorpion, Mountune V2, Cobb, and AWE all have valved exhausts. The control for the valve doesn't change (at least without a tune or separate control box), so the valve works like it would with the OEM exhaust.
 
Thanks for providing this list, very helpful in deciding which system to get. I'm definitely leaning towards the AWE SwitchPath at the moment. Originally was considering High-Flow Cat + Ford Performance Exhaust (to actually get some power gains), but may just end up going with the Stock DP + AWE SwitchPath.
That's a good choice. The great thing about the AWE Switch Path is that the muffler is designed to cancel out drone. At least, from what I've heard.
