Hey ZN6. I've read every single post on this thread and WORKS seems to be a great product! So props to you and WORKS. I've noticed some customers had two issues.

- left pipe is higher
- right pipe sticks out a bit

I'm really considering ordering, likely the ABM from you and you mentioned in February that issues are resolved. Can you please confirm for me that the two issues above are fixed? I ask, because I'm extremely OCD and live in TX, so can't bring it by your shop if I have issues.

Thank you very much for your time!

The jigs were fixed a while ago to correct those issues. I got my AB-M back in April and it fits perfectly.

Great, many thanks to both of you for the heads-up!

Just one last question, please. Regarding the drone sound, the ABM will be less than the AB, is this correct?

@alT BRZ, how's the sound on your ABM...do you like?

I'm asking about the sound, because most of my driving to/from work is highway and I rather not have an annoying sound inside my FR-S from the exhaust.

I really do appreciate any/all help, so I understand what I'm looking at buying.

Both system has zero drone.

The AB is louder than the AB-M.

I suggest getting the AB-M if you plan to upgrade the rest of your exhaust system in the future

Got it, thank you. I'm going doing the exhaust and not the entire system. My mind says AB-M, but on the other hand, I hope the AB-M isn't too quite either. Decisions...decisions. Haha.

It seems the AB-M is more popular...do you agree?

Cool.

I just need to find a few more vids with stock system and AB and AB-M to listen to the sound. I only found a few vids and going to look around more. I'll make a decision soon, I promise.

Thank you again for being so helpful!

I have revworks header, perrin overpipe, invidia catless fp and perrin fp and am looking for something louder. If i equipped the Works AB would this be a really loud setup because that is what I am after. How would this compare to the loudness of the berk delete with header, catless fp etc.?

It's not stainless? Have you had any problems with fading or rusting?
