Snapped the PCV Valve pipe off the engine block which apparently is a bit common. Just didn't realise it was hard plastic and not very flexible so didn't disconnect it from the intake pipe before trying to remove it, snapped clean off right at the end. Took the part off the block and super glued back together, put it back on gentle and hasn't come off since, 2 days so far, checking for leaks looks all good. Will order a replacement part though as not very expensive, will be a PITA to get to again though now everything is back together...

Thanks dude! Pretty sure they are just stickers so should be ok to remove. I didn't see any screws going through the pipe in that location. There's also a logo on the joining pipe but can be rotated away from view. It also comes in black for OEM look. Enjoy!

I removed these crimped and smaller diameter piping, starting from the resonator. Used new 3" piping to replace them.
Removed the stock muffler with its smaller diameter tips.
Applied two of these 5" tips,
And then proceeded to drive Gazoo for 2 hrs because of the beautiful and warm notes that now escapes from the back of the car.

The car feels much more energetic, and happier. And has a note I feel it should have had from the get go.
Note:
With the factory super catalyst, turbocharger, and resonator choking down the sound and some of the power.
The muffler delete is ideal.

And in my opinion, the car will breathe much faster, without it.
Also,, our factory DP with catalyst.
Appears to be a good unit. And for me, doesn't warrant a change.

Not hard.. make sure you have a 90 degree screwdriver for the rear and a rubber mallet to push in front clips.

I test fitted my new carcovers.com indoor satin black cover (perfect and looks great, easy to stow away in its carrying case). Very happy. They have become my new car cover folks.

Since my car is officially hibernating for winter, I began working on the rest of the paint correction for dealer installed swirls and marring from when I test fitted a CoverCraft car cover which was a HORRIBLE fit. They would only refund me for the cover and I had to absorb freight/tax plus the time to correct the paint. Never buying from them ever again.

Going to work on the paint correction some more this week.

How fast have you driven it,, etc, etc.

No! And I had my Valve unplugged and open anyway.
Since Day one. Besides,,
The stock muffler has a single exhaust feature, that's straight through all the time. Then the Value opens, and the muffler becomes quasi dual.

The real magic comes from the Sport Button Feature. The quicker throttle response, which allows the pops and bangs to be much more aggressive.

If you notice on the iDrive screen when you press sport, it shows engine, not exhaust per se.
The car now sounds like an exotic, every time you let off throttle or slightly lift, as if you're manual shifting, with the sport button on.

No cel code when unplugged?
I want to straight pipe cat back or resp back but unsure if it will effect throttle response back pressure ect...
