OP/FP Combo or Individual Parts?

I have the 2.5" catted Nameless OP/FP with the resonator. I ground off a piece of the engine block for better clearance. I can see where the 3' version would be a real PITA to get in.

Yeah, I have the 3”. I find the easiest way to get it in is to jack the passenger side of the car pretty high up so you have room to twist it around to work it into place.

I have that exhaust setup you are considering. I kept OP and front pipe as modular pieces. I figured if I need to switch FP out I can leave the aftermarket OP in which makes life easier.

JDL 4-2-1
Locally built 2.5" OP and 2.5" ultra quiet spec FP
CSG touring

CSG just did a revision to their touring exhaust. I'll be getting once shortly actually to replace the current one. Setup overall is perfect IMO, seats down you get enough exhaust noise.

Thanks all for the input. I wound up ordering the front pipe separately and am planning to pick up a used OP for the same reason RToyo86 mentioned, plus it's easier to sell down the line if I need to.

Yeah I saw your sound clip video/post and was thinking "hmmm, maybe that one..." when looking at catbacks. What did they revise? Why are you replacing the one you have?

Not entirely sure on the specifics but they worked with MXP to fix the baffle failures that can occure. I have a mild baffle failure that I can hear when the muffler gets hot. A bit of buzzing around 2-3k rpm.
