From what AWE told me there is a lot of stuff going on back there with Pre-sense sensors and stuff. It would've been too difficult.

Thanks fellas! I'll get some soon I promise!

Since AWE used my car for the development of the exhaust, I was able to leave with the system installed. I would reach out to Dane at AWE-Tuning for more information about the difficulty of the install because I'm not at all familiar with it. Sorry about that!

It is just all exhaust all the time! That's why I decided on going with the resonated version instead of the non-resonated version. Just in case it was too much!

Another pic request, an you take a shot from standard-behind view. Can you see the bottom tips of the exhaust any? Just wondering if it adds anything aesthetically to the rear if you arent looking under actively.

Sure thing. Someone actually requested this on Audizine.com. Here are a couple of photos from eye-level at different distances for everyone's reference. For me, the point where the tips were no longer visible was about 5-6 feet away from the rear of the car. Please excuse my super narrow driveway

Sorry guys, my wife and I just had a baby! Haven't been cruising around much anymore these days. Hopefully the fine folks at AWE-Tuning can get their videos uploaded soon! Sorry for the letdown fellas

Now that you don’t have a gag order... is the exhaust like an “I’m a high schooler” loud, or is it a tasteful increase?
