I know scott won't let me down, but especially after the day I had and the dealership erasing my racing beat flash I need something to make me not be mad at this car anymore.

1/2 the price of something I already paid for and then not having a car for another week when I pay for next day shipping both ways hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... I can only hope to god cobb isn't full of **** this time and actually releases their unit this month.

Glad to hear you are happy with the midpipe, I knew going into it the quality would be top notch.

I didn't have my dealer flash my car, do you think I'm retarded? I actually told them 5 times in advance including the service manager not to do it... they did it... then denied doing it after the fact to this point still. I only brought it in to check my coils, they told me they had a new flash available and I told them I wanted nothing to do with it... Please don't make stupid comments like that I've had a bad enough day as it is and it has nothing to do with this product.

heh...I might do high flow cat...

Is anyone using a high flow cat with boost? I read (somewhere) the pettit supercharger works with a high flow cat without risk of destroying the cat (not sure if that is accurate or not)

The problem with that is some of us live in an area that requires emissions testing. If we gut our cat we have nothing to fall back on. With a mid pipe, we can just swap in the cat and reset the ecu when it comes time to go in for testing again.

'features'?? It's a hollow pipe...what kinnda feature are we talking about. Chet: PM me, we gotta talk.
Because it has special features.... like disabling the resonators to make more noise and power when your on the track.

Well you could do it like in Old School. Get flexible corrugated A/C & Heating pipe and make one your self. NO weight. But FAST!

Are you saying that it has electric exhaust dump valves?

It would be so cool to have them vacuum operated like wastegates.

I'm pretty sure Razz is just being facetious. This midpipe has no valves in it.

I don't think that would be very cool. It would just add more weight and complication to a part that doesn't need it.

I don't understand what is the big deal with this?
so much talk over a test pipe LOL double resonated or not, who cares? It'll still stink without cat.

Come on Al, surely the dealership let you hold onto one of the numerous cats you've burned out to date...
