Also Bueller here, Was unable to get installed by myself last week. Range of issues, however none related to the product itself...mainly it being really hot and tired.
Traveling this week. Will be back in the following week, and should have it on soon after. Videos will follow.

Can you use the stock sport dual exhaust tips with the x-pipe?

These are my retro”Fuchs” knock off 19’s. Just put them in my new cab. Think they look great.

Ok, a little review here for the X-pipe. I like it. For a third the cost of the factory PSE (installed) I think it’s great. It slightly louder overall. Bassier for sure. There is a little drone, but it’s very minor, and tuned to not be an annoying drone. I was pleasantly surprised to get pops and gurgles when switching to Sport mode. They sound great. Adds so much. This is such a better sound then the quiet stock exhaust. Well worth it.

I ordered the Black Chrome tips. What I got was mat black tips, which look good. I guess they had issues with the shiny ones. As far as the tips go, they stick out a bit too far. It’s aggressive looking and some may like it. I will probably talk to my shop about tweaking these and getting them to sit inside another inch or so.

Overall, it’s a good product. Well made. Sounds nice, and a big upgrade in sound from stock. Here’s a link and some photos.

Beat me to it mate lol. Looks and sounds good tho!
I think I'll have the shop take off some of the X-Pipe exits to make the tips tuck in a bit more.
Does stick out a fair bit. Still interested in hearing how it sounds under boost. Will try and get some videos once I get a chance.

Thank you for posting. Ive been looking towards your review and Aatish as well.
Do you believe the tips would also stick out with oem stock tips?

I am leaning towards buying the exhaust but the tips sticking out would definitely bother me. Also glad drone is minimal that was definitely a concern especially on a Cab.

Hmmmmm. Not sure about the OEM tips. Will put them on and post pictures in my full review. I'll try and do test fit of my Fabspeed tips on the stock exhaust once I'm back from my trip. If the fitment is near stock, I would assume that with the X-pipe the OEM tips would stick out as well.

Should have something later this week.

If anyone is interested, we have a set of Sport Catalytic Converters available for non-PSE cars that we would like to get feedback on / video of if anyone is looking to get more sound without a check engine light. PM me for a great deal.

Thank you everyone for the interest in our Sport Catalytic Converters - we've lined up a reviewer for our demo set. We'll have media of them on a car next week and feedback from another member on our catless pipes later this week.

I know you have been working with Alec.
I want to chime in and say: Great looking car and such a great sound! Happy you are loving the exhaust. I am sure Alec would be happy to help you out but the car looks and sounds fantastic
