down pipe or mid pipe

A, Remus mid pipe or Dinan x pipe
B, down pipe+jb4

Which mod can produce better sound? I believe that my option A won't trigger cel, am I right?

Going DP w the stock exhaust and valves open is a great combination as well, you would just need to tune out the cel.

If you are doing mipdipe without the rear exhaust section, you will need to do some cutting (very easy and straight forward).

Best sound depends on what kind of sound you are looking for.
AA midpipe will get you the cleanest sound, REMUS / Dinan offer a more aggressive sound while keeping the stock rasp.

All 3 products in stock

Jb4 + Downpipes will not offer a better sound than midpipe but this combo will get you a lot more power

Damn....didn't realize that on the midpipe - it's a nice upgrade for the money, but since my car is a lease, I didn't want to get into any cutting.
