  • Are there any real gains with this exhaust? I've seen a few videos of the sound of the exhaust and to me it's very very nice, but I'm concerned about the design. I'm not willing to lose performance (at low nor high RPMs) just to improve the sound. I'm happy if my performance at least remains the same.

    How much the OEM exhaust weight compares with the AWE?

    Do I really need the performance mid-pipe? Sorry about my ignorance, but what's this for? Louder sound? Better performance gains? Both?

Thanks so much for the reply!
Alex, below is a dyno sheet for the full system.



The Performance Mid Pipe serves both causes - unlocking more power as well as a more aggressive sound track. For this particular motor, I myself am a huge sucker for the addition of the mid pipe. It's aggressive with a nice dose of burbles and increased power!
