Sounds great. Mine is on the mail left the NY distribution center a few days ago.
Once my car comes back from the detailer I have the in-service appt at the dealer.
I will have the mid pipe install with OEM down pipes and muffler.

Does the Single mid non resonated delete the secondary cats also?

Also would like to know what the resonated version would sound like with the REMUS axle back?

Would it be loud?

Are you in Europe? If so you may have opf's to also worry about.

All of our midpipes delete the secondary cats and resonators.

Sounds really good and shifting sounds muck faster too. I hope mine will sound similar. My resonated mid-pipe should be installed next Thursday, with the CS trans flash instead and an Armaspeed intake.

Thanks for posting.

Yes that will be the only at this point. I thinking on an axel back in the future to match up to the mid-pipe. I am working in Spain for a few more years and shipping is a no no for a heavy and bulky box from the US.
I am looking at any of the European manufacturer ($$$ or should I say €€€€) Not sure yet. Baby steps. I don want any drone.

That's the exact setup I plan on having - CS coding, midpipe, stock back box and DP's. The AA midpipes seem to have that horrendous rattle on cold start which the MAD pipe seems to not have?

If you could get some videos, I (and I'm sure others) would be most appreciative!

No rattle from the midpipe itself..

It's simple install, any competent shop can do it. I no longer recommend who did mine. I've had a few G82's already, my exhaust recommendation is MAD Single mid pipe, and the SST Valve controller.

But yea PVGP was a great time, my car was the Sao Paulo M4 with the Adro front end

Need a cold start sound clip w/ valves closed, if and when possible.

Recently had to have the AA EL mid pipes taken off the car because of neighbor cold start complaints. The technical discussion from the "emission" perspective wasn't worth the hassle with them... or the wife. Haha

Much appreciated.

I would’ve just said that’s how the car comes.

Deal with it.

I am going to try and get a video in a few days(out for the weekend). My parking is in a underground garage, 😂 I am lucky my neighbors are gone when I start my cars.

I will work on that in a few days. I think I looked at a million videos of different setups, brands, w/wo down pipes.
I wanted a deeper sound with minimal to no drone and this mid-pipe accomlished the task. Total installation time was about 45min.

It's going to be tough to relay cold start loudness without a db meter. They do have some free ones in the phone app store and even some that will overlay recorded video as well.
