Also done a trackday and a week of driving with the midpipe, my 3 yr old CorkSport Exhaust (argeably one of the louder catbacks), and coils. I think it may now be a tad quieter than with the CAT actually, certainly no louder.

You guys are teasing... I'm still waiting for my tracking number.
My mid-pipe is supposed to be on the next shipment.
Can't wait.

Yeah, but the question is when is it going to get here. I was told over the phone that is would "absolutely be here by the 23rd". It’s a poor business practice to take money for a product you can’t deliver in a timely manner.

Good News! We just received parts! We will be building midpipes and filling orders in the order they were placed.

More good news, the new gaskets we are using are guaranteed not to blow out!

We appreciate your patience while waiting on these components to arrive. Rest assured if I could have squeezed the suppliers any harder to speed things up I would have done so.

Thanks Guys, Scott

Anyone have the Mazsport midpipe with the Agency Catback exhaust? I had the AP midpipe on and it was too loud for my taste so I went back to stock cat and AP catback, and now I love how it sounds. Wondering if anyone has the Mazsport midpipe and the AP exhaust. How does it sound?

I have the AP catback...
I too thought the midpipe was too loud, so I put the cat back on.
I'll let you know how MazSport's midpipe sounds once its installed.

everyone should get a CEL with this pipe. There is no cat material at all so it will trow a code. Alot of people just use something like Cobb to shut it off though or just have to live with the light being on.

How could you live with CEL being on? If something wrong happened to the engineparts you wouldn't know it?!

I hav ethe sCANalyser to i will know if anor or anything goes wrong. Plus the COBB AP will shut off just the light for the cat. so if anything goes wrong anywhere else with the car and or motor then it will still throw a CEL.

2) I have a clearance issue with the rear resonator close to this shield. Might rattle here also one day.


3) Not sure about how to use the middle bung, it seems to high. It might have been rotated down 10-15 degrees, then it would be no problem. I'm not using a wideband currently, so this can be changed later buy just drilling in a new bung maybe.


4) I notice that you do not re-use the donut gasket between the midpipe and the exhaust connecting pipe. Not using one means that there is no flexible joint in the entire system. Do you have a 3" donut for me to use? If not where can I buy one?


Any suggestions?
I'm looking to pick up a highflow Cat that is as silent as possible. I have the SR Motorsports on my 8 right now, and it's just fantastic and LOUD.... and frankly, I'm getting kind of sick of it. Is this dual resonator setup on a Cat-Less Pipe? or a Highflow Cat?

I really like the look of this thing. I wouldn't mind picking it up, so long as I can still pass "air care".
