That sounds the best solution.

Just a quick question on the shipping that nameless performance provides. They say that if you bundle Street Axleback and High Flow Cat Package together you get free shipping. Is that true if you want it shipped to Canada too?

I don't think you get free shipping on any setup. I combined both, and still had to pay shipping.

I just installed the front part and you can DEFINITELY feel the 12 whp, very happy!!

As a side note, I sheared off one of the spring bolts.. going tomorrow to muffler shops to get a replacement. It took me a while to get the system installed but not that bad, and nothing difficult just time consuming.

Great to hear you felt that dyno boost from the high flow cat!

Because mine will be RHD I had to get the down pipe with high flow cat only, so no over pipe combined like yours.
Should mine be an easy fit?

I can try.... The thing is that the sound on video is never the same as real life unless you are using movie type cameras and in a controlled environment. I also really don't have a gopro or anything like that but I can try with a Sony camera I have and see how it comes out.

The way I feel the power is before, I personally always noticed the car being held up at high RPM like struggling a bit to keep going after 6k RPM, now the car pulls better in all RPM ranges and keeps pulling harder even as I get close to redline, no more struggling. It definitely freed up flow.

No worries, how much louder is it from just the axle back? And its good to know you can actually feel the performance difference.

Ok. Let me see if I can make this clear. When you have only the Axleback, it is super mild, and you can only really hear it at certain RPMs where there is resonance (NO DRONE at all). This RPMs are about 2700 and 4200.

With the front part, you hear the exhaust throughout the power band similar to what you experience with just the Axleback at the mentioned RPMs. Then at those RPMs, it is louder. It's not obnoxious, it's not deafening, but definitely you notice the exhaust is there.

Edit: I aslo wanted to add there is not a hint of rasp, it is solid growl all the time.

Edit 2: There is NO Loud sound inside the cabin, it was my mistake for missing a gasket and having an exhaust leak. adding the front part only adds a bit of loudness to what you originally experience with only the Axleback. I recommend it to anyone, don't fear that it will be too loud it is just great!
