I cant seem to find any definitive information on mid pipes. All the ones I seem to find online are rwd only and the one or two that ive found that seem to be awd are all $300+ more expensive. Any information or links would be greatly appreciated
 
I have the ark mid pipe that was for a rwd but my stinger is awd. All that is different is the bracket mount location. I got mine installed at ark performance. They just had to put a new bracket further downa few inches very easy.

Same pipe nothing different. Awd downpipes were backordered for months so i didn't feel like waiting and zero difference. You will never look at it. Mid pipes are great! Helps turbos spool up real quick and gives a nice aggressive tone. You will get a beautiful cold start turbo spool sound as well and many burbles when slowing down to a stop. Highly recommend you get it! I like the ark ones since its a bit cheaper and not that polished look that I am not a fan of.

are you on factory exhaust? it does not look like it by how clean those pipes are. im looking into doing mid pipes. went MBRP but it is not quiet loud enough for my taste

No i have the borla catback non valved. I already have the active valve version in box getting installed friday so i can make it quiter with the drive modes.

I feel ya on the mbrp pro. I had the mbrp pro as well before and felt it was not loud enough either so i went borla. Loved the tone but after while wanted it bit louder with more aggressive tone. Now its literally perfect. Well about to be even better as from what I've reas the newer borla has a cleaner less raspier tone than the 18-21 non valved version.

The downpipe will definitely wake up any catback! It sounds glorious i tell you!
