Eh, mine is west of Pittsburgh. It'd still be a hike for us to meet in the middle.

Steve, I can always help you with welding up the X-pipe to eliminate the leak you are getting from the expansion slot. I had to do a similar "fix" on the Pypes X-pipe I am using for my V6. It kept on slipping and then giving me a small leak.

Jay, I'd really appreciate that if you could. I don't really have easy access to a welder who can do stainless.

Love my Roush exhaust. No X-pipe due to the boss quad exhaust, though.

Videos w/ sound in my sig.

Mine is parked to the side because it can't compete lol

Closed street.




Also I asked a guy on YouTube to record a Roush vs. Borla S (AB) comparison and he was nice enough to do it

Yeah, a little too loud with the race system. I just have the cat back but it is still a loud and very muscle tone. I like it alot, inside the car its still quiet but my wife says she knows when I pull up at her work before she even sees me.

Nope, worked all weekend. Your Corsas are in my garage in the box, just need to take it to UPS tomorrow and get them on their way back to you.

Yes, there is. On the 2011+ cars, the exhaust unbolts just behind the cats. You can quickly and easily swap out the H-pipe for an X-pipe. I believe FRPP, Borla, and Corsa offer one, just to name a few. My only suggestion; stay away from the Corsa one. It has an additional joint on the pipe coming from the drivers side, and I have had numerous issues with leaks there. The FRPP and Borla pipes are a one-piece design.

Will they give an obvious change in sound even with leaving the cats?? So the cats can be taken out on their own, hmm maybe easy enough to swap in/out for inspections time...

Yes. I tried my Corsa with and without the X pipe. You could tell a big difference in the sound.

From what I've been told, the cats are tricky to get out. It may not be as easy as you think.

Nice, so maybe that'll be a soon to come mod. It's a pretty easy swap or you need to loosen everything all the way to the axle backs?
