I think so. From what I've read, its very similar. The single mid removes the rasp, but the EL's appear to be a step above and align the pulse from the 2 banks. The result is a 6 cylinder like note.

For those who have a vibration at low speeds, how did you solve it

Did you add washers to the cross brace? Did you check to make sure pipes are not touching/close to heat shields?

[horsepower_and_hounds]

as the system heats up the pipes move a lot..... the old M-Performance exhaust used to move back 1/2 in when the flex joints heated up and expanded. They is why in the install instructions they tell you to tilt the rubber bracket doughnuts forward so they can travel backwards. You exhaust is heating up. moving and touching something it things are not loose. Who ever installed should have ensured adequate clearances and yes you have to space the cross brace or leave it off. it is all here....

There should be VRSF cross braces soon......

Thanks for the reply.
Yes, i have spacers for the brace, looks to be the heatshield touching, with all clamps loose I wasn't able to pull it any further from the shield, any suggestions?

Brace who? I never knew her

[MR_X]

If you are looking for an extended brace, contact this guy in ebay. I believe he makes them in batches. I just recently got one of his. I no longer have a rattle in that area.

Washers are cheaper......

Interesting.

People have been waiting for those and we're supposed to get them sent out by Tiago when they are available. Wonder if we got left hanging.

Yes very interesting....... I thought he was to satisfy his earlier customers as promised. Maybe they are supplying direct from overseas supplier on the new deliveries but extras have not made it to him yet. Guess one of us need to inquire

I believe we did get left out, just like the people waiting to see data from there top mount intercooler they’ll never see the data as we will not see the brace.

Anyone have issues with clamp leaking from the end muffler side? Just installed mine and there’s air leak and water leak by the muffler. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated clamps doesnt seem to seal.

Is the vrsf single midpipe compatible with the Remus axle back?
