I also installed bola x-pipe along with AFE intake, wish I could dyno before and after to see the real numbers.
Questions for you all, does those two MODS void the extended warranty? Or it depends on the dealership?
Thanks

Big Daddy,s 90 degree work great, just had 2 days at the track no CEL.
IMO I probably liked the overall sound better with just the Main Cat Delete pipes. Adding the Borla X really cranks up the loudness and does not make the quality of the sound any better, just louder. I did have several at the track comment on the wicked sound. (LOUD)
I don't drive this one on the street hardly at all, so will probably leave it as is.
I also have the BMS filter, actually added the X and the filter at the same time. I disconnected the battery after the install to reset everything and no issues.
It seems that with the Cats gone and with the 100 octane tune the performance is a little better in hot temps., but just a little.

So, the "main cat Delete" happens with just the X pipe? but you currently have the front cats (that are monitored) deleted with the cat delete down pipes?

X-pipe deletes the secondary cats. The main/primary cats are deleted with downpipes.

I’m curious why everyone’s saying what a PIA this is? All I had was 4 jack stands. I wish I had a lift, it would of went soooo smooth. My car was about 2ft in the air, a little tight but not impossible or difficult. 4 bolts up by the cats and 2 by the axle back. Took a couple hours and Im no mechanic by any means. I don’t know why anyone would loosen the manifolds����*♂️. Unless other x-pipes don’t line up well, I got the AWE. It definitely made it louder but not what I’m looking for. I want it to pop or backfire when I downshift. My mods are a Halltech carbon intake and a Mamo ported TB. Nooo CEL as of right now. That intake really made a huge difference.
