I actually swapped over this past week and agree. I think any extra power I feel from the AA catted DP -> 5” catless is just the amazing extra sound (Borla CBE). The smell is a bit much and will probably go back at some point. (for me, I know being a baby)
could be tire size, could be spacers, can be camera angle. I'd wait a week for them to settle, my (whiteline) took a bit to settle. Drove it, then got it aligned.
Are you happy with it? All that matters. Swift is super low
Picked up a ‘cheap’ 5” kitty cat free downpipe and swapped from the catted AA DP.
I get it….the turbo sounds and the exhaust note is bonkers. Love it. But man it smells real bad heh. Probably swap back at some point...yes you can make fun of me for being a wuss :)
Can’t tell if there is more...
I prefer the Non-res: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/aa-catted-downpipe-injen-awe-touring-res-and-non-res-sound-clips-opinion.19341/
Borla seems like the best option if you need a valve. Thanks to Mike @Extreme Power House for the pricing and fast shipping...
Love them, but I do switch to the Conti all seasons in OEM size on the OEM wheels for Fall and Spring here.
Conti > Michelin for these summers vs OEMs for sure!
I posted a bunch of clips if you search. Even did a comparison against Borla.
on a catted DP I would pick the non-res mid pipes. Louder. More mid range. Sounded amazing. Let me know if you want, mine are for sale!
