Endgame, I have a soundclip on my phone taken from inside the cockpit that I could upload, but it is so loud at WOT that I get mass distortion. I'll work on getting it up since school work is pissing me off right now and this provides a needed distraction.
I already searched!!!!!!!

Here's the clip, that was relatively painless except for the fact that it's a zipped .amr because of stingy size restrictions on uploads. Oh well, back to work I guess.
Here's link to the mp3 format too (right-click, save-as):

I shipped a midpipe dirt cheap to Scotland of all places using USPS, not sure why you're having an issue unless the box is much larger than it needs to be
and it had a rear hanger installed too
Could cut it in half and they can weld it together there. Just make sure and put a line down the pipe the long way before you cut it so that they know where it matches up. Make sure the customer is down with doing that.

Also in light of the midpipe that it will throw a CEL, over the phone one of the reps at RX8store said that none of their's have thrown a check engine light.

We have never said the midpipe didnt throw a CEL. I have said that some customers have told me they have not gotten a CEL with our resonated midpipe, but I couldnt verify that was the case for every car.
