One at the turbo to primary and one at the primary to secondary connection on both sides. 4 rings total. You can look them up at real oem. 2 are in the engine section and 2 in the exhaust section.

Catless down pipes will often smell, but the smell comes out the tail pipe and not from a leak. You have to figure out whether you are just smelling the catless smell or exhaust from a leak.

So, just doing the secondary pipes will give you a nice turbo sound from the exhaust when the rpms drop?

[pbonsalb]

You should hear a slight whistle sometimes at low rpm with just secondaries. It is more noticeable with high flow cat primaries and even more noticeable with catless primaries.

It will improve the sound throughout the entire RPM

Can we please get a video of the sound?! I want to run just secondary downpipes with my Dinan x pipe but I’m not sure if it’ll sound any better than it does now. I’m looking to turn up the volume

Your looking for a Video with just secondary only?

Yes sir. I mean I’m ordering them as soon as they become available regardless but I’d love to hear just secondaries. I have a Dinan X pipe but I know asking for a video with secondaries and a Dinan x pipe is just too much

I ordered the secondaries and I have the X pipe. Hopefully the downpipes ship soon.

Please update after your install. I am thinking of going the same route.

Ditto. Excited to hear how it turns out.

Installing on Monday.

I got this from Anthony. "Our secondary does not use the gasket so just remove that and bolt it right up to the primary"

If you could clarify for me, so I don't have any issues with the install.


So remove all gaskets?

If a gasket is in the primary (secondary side) take it off, and if there is a gasket on the oem secondary, don't try to put it on the MAD?


Thanks.

Just the one between the primary and secondary our flange acts as a gasket.

Thank you.

The install went well. It sounds great. I have the stock non comp exhaust with a Dinan X Pipe and the MAD secondaries.

I’ll try to get some videos for you guys. Definitely more pops and bangs, more turbo noise, and louder.

Some video content will be awesome - with catless secondaries, I would have the same setup. Seal the deal for me, please and thank you.

Also looking for any drone you may notice.

Nice! I’m about to drive it 250+ miles today, so I’ll let you know. But from just the first few miles, no noticeable drone.

MAD offers the primary pipes; you can get it directly from them; we do not offer catless downpipes.

I apologize for this question. But this is the first time I’m thinking about modding my car. But, i a NOT replacing my catalytic converters with these secondary pipes or am I?

Sorry,I just found the answer….which is yes it does replace the cats.

[DryBark]

You’re removing the secondary cat with the secondary midpipe and replacing with a straight pipe. Primary cat remains.
