System is live and full install DIY and review is up!

I had a chance to get hands on with this system and a gorgeous local M2, installing both the catback and track edition for a full DIY. This also gave me a chance to do a full before and after video comparing stock, catback and track edition all on the same car, same day. What a fantastic opportunity to work with a new system and very likely the very first G87 customer car outside their shop, in the world!

The install is straight forward and I walk you through the entire process, and you can hear the differences in the setups. The catback is excellent, adding a deeper note and extra growl in both Efficient and Sport modes. The Track edition is valveless, so brings the full spicy all the time, with both much louder than stock emphasizing exhaust tone and burbles.

Here are the full set of links for both installs and the full comparison of the systems!

Will AWE offer flanged midpipe(s) that delete the secondary cats? Cutting the OEM exhaust to retain the secondary cats is a deal killer on my side. Resonated MP's (that mate to the downpipes) along with the SwitchPath axleback would have been an easy choice!

We can not offer any systems that alter the factory emissions equipment in order to remain compliant and our systems remain 50 state legal.

A large reason why we have a break point between the mid pipes and the catback so if folks would like to create a mix and match or custom setup, they can still go with our catback in addition to whatever midpipes they choose.

Thanks for the videos. Sounds great.

So, just to confirm, the AWE catback will mate up with an existing 3rd party midpipe that was cut at the dimples?

Ah, I see. That makes total sense.

You will likley need to adapt a single mid pipe rather than use AWE's midpipes
