Getting a quicksilver sports exhaust next week.

Do folks put back fuse 22 or leave it removed?

I may wrong, but unless your aftermarket has the flaps that the OEM exhaust has, it won't make a difference. I have an aftermarket from Velocity AP and it does not have the flaps.

^That is correct. The fuse only affects the exhaust valves. If the aftermarket exhaust doesn't have valves, it doesn't make any difference. I'd leave the fuse in place for simplicity's sake.

Yup! No need to remove fuse 22. Just zip tie the vacuum hoses so road gunk doesn't get in there and you're good to go!
