Just got this today:thumbup:
Got it installed last night. All was smooth with the exception of a stubborn bolt between the downpipe and cat pipe. Took two hours, lots of pb penetrating oil and an impact wrench. The sound of this thing is amazing. The fit is perfect. I couldn't be happier. Will take video/sound sometime this weekend!

I thought very long and hard about what exhaust to pick up for my X. Coming from a long list of refined german cars (Audi S4, BMW M3, VW R32) from my past life I just couldn't get myself to love any of the single catbacks with large watermelon shooters used for a muffler. No offense to anybody that likes that look, I appreciate that many people like different styles. I originally was going to go for a nice dual setup but ruled that out because I wanted the lightest system possible and figured a single catback would have less material and weigh less. I love the custom oval muffler that CP-e built and am very impressed with the mandrel bent stainless tubing and the tip is exactly what I was looking for. The best thing about this system is that I can take off the muffler section for track days and add a rear section they make with the exact same tip but no muffler, just straight 3" all of the way out!
