BAE,
Nice Car!! Congrats and get ready for the mod addiction.

NorthVan is right...the best mod is more seat time!

Hope to see you at TWS in Sept.

Hope that sums it up for you!

Enjoy the new ride...

Hey Matt,
Does this change the exhaust sound?

I dont know...but I think its safe to assume its not going to sound exactly the same...probably a little louder but not overkill...After all, the stock mufflers are pretty tame. Ill post a report once I get everything hooked up.

I spoke with my dealer yesterday and he said the X51 headers and AWE cats would not void my CPO warranty...he just wants to make sure I can still pass emissions.
