There's some drone between 2 and 2.5k. Most people have been fine with it (per reviews on the boards, with recs to get the resonated version if getting downpipes).
Located in north louisiana. |

How does it fit on your car? I thought that you have to rotate the down pipes (are they stock?) to get the exhaust line up and don't touch the car, right? I am worry about the fitment issue with this exhaust in general.

Remember that the downpipes are bolted to the turbos via a V-Clamp and thus can be rotated. The issue I had (and that others did as well, but didn't seem to mention) was that one of the pipes would touch the under support brace. The SIMPLE solution was to rotate that downpipe EVER so slightly which would allow plenty of clearance of the pipe and under support brace. Everything else with the exhaust fit perfectly, which means, no rubbing on heat shields, no funny aligned exhaust tips, no rubbing ANYWHERE else. That one mid pipe just hung down too low. It cleared everything just fine. But it was fixed easily. It's as if the car used for CP-E's design and fitment had the stock downpipe rotated slightly differently than mine because it came together beautifully after I did that. |

Not sure yet. I was hoping for the used aftermarket parts section for the 1 series to pick up a touch but it hasn't really yet. It gets old buying things new all the time only to turn around and sell them. I was just gonna wing it depending on if a deal came up or not. I just have a hard time getting a feel for an exhaust through sound clips. My only criteria really is that it fits (which X's out RR's exhaust...)

It is supply and demand.

Demand may be low, supply may be high, but this the only CP-E used set available on 1addicts right now
Why buy new when you can buy almost new and lots cheaper |
