Don't get me wrong. I've saw videos on Youtube with the AWE exhaust and it sounds glorious. But to think I can get a intake,jb4,dp, and resonator delete for around $1300 seems like a lot more stuff over just a catback. Thanks for the feedback though I will definitely need to pull the trigger on one at some point haha.

Also I am a little confused on the stock exhaust layout. So it goes from the cat in the DP to a resonator then a second cat to the muffler correct? In which case an AWE mid pipe would pretty much remove the resonator and the second cat?
