Default Running pipe for homebrew FMIC to stg3 turbo outlet-->
I'm running a DTS on the car now..and put a snub mount on afterwards..didn't notice a difference. Would anything happen if I was to remove the entire lower inter cooler x-pipe on the car so I don't have to cut it?? I'm thinking not..but you guys know a little more than I.

Default FWIW - I cut 2" off mine and saved it - I can always weld it back on...
Tho I think I am way beyond the point of being able to go back to stock...
