>>>All other things being equal, a ball flange makes life easy.   But if 
the system is properly manufactured, flat collector flanges work just fine.   
In his case, he's already got the system installed on his car and 
(presumably) it fits just fine.   So there would be absolutely zero to gain by hacking 
up both the headers and the tailpipes to accomodate a ball flange setup, 
and doing so would be a rather time-consuming and thus expensive undertaking.

That would fall into the category of 'recreational maintenance'...:>)
