Where do I have to cut the original exhaust for these midpipes?

I've read this thread about 3 times, but are there any videos of sound with Stock DPs, this mid pipe, and a stock ZCP muffler setup?

Are people still saying to get the non resonated setup if you're planning on keeping stock DPs?

The velvet blue f80 has stock downpipe, AA EL Mid and Stock ZCP muffler.

@TommyLGarage did all the work. Check out his vid and jump to the 3-minute mark to see where to cut.

Just ordered my resonated version! Can't wait! I'm currently stock exhaust and downpipes but plan to go catless hence the resonated option.

Did you get a potential delivery date? I'd like to hear the resonated ones with my MPE as I think it needs it but I don't think there are enough of us MPE people to matter.

According to the owner, their biggest production batch will be ready to ship mid to late August. I haven't seen a resonated version yet besides on their shop car which has their catless dp's, their exhaust system, and resonated EQ midpipe.

Justin.AutoTalent is the only other person I know who has the Res midpipe. I know he's working on SoundClips so looking forward to hearing this when he gets the chance to post them.

I feel like the velvet blue f80 sounds more tinny than the single. What do you guys think?

ECS sell proper stainless 65mm couplers. (https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ernst-pa...k0253141j~ern/)

These is mine after 3 years which AA refused to acknowledge or replace. The midpipe itself is excellent, shame it has this issue.

My couplers have rust too and only have 1k miles and had seen rain once. It also rub.

Do you happen to have the part number for the crush gasket you referenced and how many gaskets do you need?

It's part #2, you need two of them.

This isn't generating as much buzz as I thought. Any other users here?

Cause there's not enough pipes out there, they have so far only released a test batch. That and getting a response from AA has been hard. I sent them an inquiry using the form on their website and got no response.

I'm curious to know as well before I pull the trigger. Personally I would just get the midpipe and stick with stock downpipes and muffler.

Same. For some pipes that dont provide significant performance increase and somewhat fixes the exhaust tone... 1300+ is a step price to want to experiment with without real world testimonials yet.
