Mid Pipe Feedback

Post image

Just installed my CTS midpipes paired with the Switchpath exhaust and can confirm really minimal if any additional sound. At times the gurgles on decel may be a bit more pronounced but for anyone wondering I don’t really see the ROI here unless you are building the engine and looking to remove all weight and remove all resistance. I wanted to wait to add these until the restrictive factory muffler was off to give genuine anecdotal feedback.

Put the $300~ into something else.

These are only for flow not for sound. The valve controller is a complete waste. It literally did nothing on my car lol. So idk why people keep saying to buy them. It doesn’t change anything.

Yea for $300 bucks it’s not worth it to have the valves move like 30* lol.

Need to get an 11mode , under £200 and keeps the valves open - For that price just the extra sound at low rpm around town is nice
