hey man i heard you say you had to cut the mid pipe. why? its not a bolt on, but your catback fits the old stock downpipes. I'm doing the same install right now IE downpipes on 2018 A3 8V . i wanna be prepared and have a exhaust tube cutter in hand for custom work.
@Ryanaustin13Ай бұрын
Hey, yea I had to cut it cut and welded because the mid pip and the cat back is different brands from each other. Also because they are meant to fit onto the stock downpipe/exhaust. I just got it welded for convenience so there are no exhausts leaks that could form but very do able if you cut and use a exhaust clamp.

Nah man thats definitely a great question, I had the same doubts too. But they honestly they hold pretty well.
