Default Speedtech X-pipe (with cats) install review

Some weeks ago I ordered a Speedtech X-pipe catted system.
John was prompt with his replies (on a Sunday in my case) and very helpful walking me through my order.
After fabrication, the pipe was shipped and arrived at my door in Canada only days later.

As my C4S is a daily driver, a lot of the bolts etc were extremely rusted, so had my indy do the install.
Aside of taking extra time to remove the old cats, the system went in flawlessly.
New O2 sensors were installed too (old ones were not coming out).
The result: absolutely awesome. The system is nice and quiet at idle and low rpm and livens up 3500rpm and up. Not over the top, but you surely know it's there.
Shoukd have done it years ago.
Job well done by John and Speedtech team. It leaves me as an extremely happy customer.
I can highly recommend them.

Will try to add a sound clip when I'm home in a week.

I did a full speedtech exhaust recently. Their X-pipes are well made and fit nicely.

Ditto. I went with their catless X. Combined with XLF, it was epic

I was thinking catless, but bought catted as I needed to replace a bad cat and considered future resale issues.
Any sound clips?

I am considering their x-pipe with my current Fabspeed headers and mufflers. For what is pretty much just some piping, I have a hard time justifying paying twice as much for the Fabspeed. I'd like to have 100% Fabspeed system, but I'm not sure I can do it!
