I'm going to do the DPs soon, and the map (bm3).
After that I'll attack the exhaust with a cutter and welder. I will start with removing the resonators
I'm unsure on the x-pipe though. It looks, from photos online, that there is already an x-pipe in there on the factory exhaust. Is that correct? No point cutting that out to fit another then?
thanks,

Hey ,if your car is a comp pack then the resonator tubes are hollow already ,
The problem with the factory exhaust giving a deeper tone is the midsection where the two pipes join ,I guess you can call it a baby X section its very pinched and choked,When you change the downpipes it will get much louder but the tone will be the same ,I attached a pic the Meistershaft Velocity box and you can see how much more opened it is vs stock, its also 3-1/2" tubing vs 3in
