They removed it.

I checked a while ago to see if there were any orders yet. I am hoping that they are making changes to their groupbuy and will post back up on their website with updates.

Overpipe/Downpipe will need to be changed for the Auto, the pan on the auto is larger i believe so they have to bend the overpipe slightly different so the downpipe wont touch the pan(maybe nameless can add or detract from this). Found this out when they went to install the overpipe/downpipe on my car and it didnt work lol.

Not as of yet, i didnt get down to their shop until late on a friday night(i live 3-4 hours away), so there wasn't a whole lot of time to really do anything.
Gonna go down again on a day off to get one fitted

They have the product designed and ready to go. They are just waiting to get their backlog taken care of and get their production times back to minimum before releasing it.

I wasn't a fan of this exhaust at first as I wanted something symmetrical but the offset sounds really good and if the group buy is a good deal may have to do this instead of P&L. We are lucky consumers to have so many options.

Got my axle-back portion installed and it's great so far! I still need to install the front section, header-back with overripe. That'll be done tomorrow. So far the rear section sounds great...that deep boxer burble inside the cab that the BRZ misses versus the WRX STI. I took a photo and couple iPhone videos that I'll post tomorrow when I'm on a real computer, non-iPad. The fit and finish on the exhaust is spectacular. Too bad it has to sit under the car!
