Downpipe+ Midpipe Suggestions!!!

[dzxy]

ARM resonated catless downpipes (if you can find these as you can't buy them new anymore due to EPA restrictions) and any single midpipe (I personally have the AA single midpipe). No rasp and screams above 4k rpm. Had no issues with install, I tightened the midpipe/downpipe connection before tightening the v band clamps at the turbo.

We don't offer catless downpipes, but if I were to pick one, the resonated option is what I'd go with. They give you all the benefits of the catless without the rasp.

+1 for MAD quality and fitment

Mpe Muffler guys will definitely want to add resonators and or high flow cats as they tend to be fairly raspy otherwise.

I currently have the mpe exhaust + single midpipe and am thinking of buying either resonated or catted downpipe. I have rasp/scratchy sound currently at mid to high rpm’s. Which would work better for me resonated or catted? Also would resonated pass smog?

I’m running resonated catless with stock box and single mid and it’s a really nice sound and only gets raspy at super high rpm’s but the rest sounds great and I get compliments

And no catless doesn’t pass smog lol not abt resonators

Ah ok wasn’t sure. Ya I really don’t want to deal with the headache of having to swap or find a shady smog place when it comes time for me to do a smog. I have a 2020 so I don’t think I have to get smogged until 2026 so idk debating on just yoloing the resonated do for the better sound

Easy fix move to Florida lmao

Honestly only two things I’d do on mine is try the equal length to see if I like

And add a valve controller to open it more than 70%


Catless always tho>>

Catless / midpipe is always a winning combo on these cars.
