Sounds good Josh. Does the clip above contain any other modifications to the car/exhaust? Or is that the track edition exhaust only?

Thanks.
Hi! OEM is ~74.5 lbs, and SwitchPath is ~79 lbs, due to the materials we use being thicker.

Mmmm. Dirty. In a good way.

I love everything about the track edition, but have to admit that it's nice to have the ability to close the valves on the NR for a more neighbor-friendly cold start. Stupid neighbors...

Looks great! Are those new tips or is it just the pic making them look almost graphite in color?

Same tips, just bright light above causing some nifty reflection on the coating.

Sweet! The track exhaust looks awesome. I was wondering why you guys didn’t put valves in the track exhaust? Is it possible to do so?

I have your resonated switch path exhaust and while the sound has grown on me, I want some more grumble/throatiness. But I also love having the ability to make it quiet easily.

Thoughts?

I have the non res version paired with catless downpipes. Cold start shakes my entire car it's not normal how loud it is in my garage. The car is extremely loud and screams at 5k+ rpm it has some dark rumble to it down low, but between 3/4K the sound is kinda Whiney with 60% throttle. When it's in first gear and slow moving from drive to reverse the car sounds like a cigarette boat. Def would recommend switch path exhaust as the loudness on long drives can get annoying when trying to have a convo.

Do you guys think adding downpipes to a NON RES SWITCHPATH would be an overkill?

You can follow the install guide for the full system to see how to swap out the mid section.

If you're referring to installing the mid sections only, that is not applicable here.

Depends who ya ask. A lot of people have done this, but I myself would convert your SwitchPath to resonated when adding DP into the mix.
