He'll need some snow, not much to come by there in NC....
Nope, but that red clay and rain.....oxyclean and bleach have nothing on that combo

It took years of wear and washing to get the grand canyon clay color out of my socks.

never thought about that, I know there was a really bad snow storm in NC, we have a sister office there and there is a picture that floats around reddit anytime there is talk of snow, ill try to find it, its pretty fun since the reaction to snow isn't so good. Sad that there was car accidents tho
Everything is real in the picture minus the filter and snowman

Hard to see in the other pictures but there’s 30’ of drains in the apron. 4” lower than the slab, 1” step down then the rest is slopped so no water will get in

Got my BCM replaced with a highline. Finally I can finish heated seats retrofit, just in time for LA summer. Dealer didn't reprogram the key fobs, I can't lock the car. Service people were gone when I picked it up though so I brought it home anyway. Going to re-do all my coding changes; chirp alarm, Mk7.5 LED tails, steering something, starting vibration reduction, what else? haha... highline gateway is next.
Had some time to put in an IE downpipe today. I bought it used and the seller didn’t have the right adapter so I ordered one but it turned out to be too long. Started getting late and cold so I called it a day with everything else buttoned up.
Right now the pipe connecting the downpipe to the catback is off the car until I get the proper adapter or bring it to a shop to be finished. I had to move the car but into its parking spot and the car is comically loud right now.

Your neighbors will love you in the morning when you fire it up. ?
Ya thankfully I’m working from home all week so I’ll get it sorted out but I felt bad firing it up earlier today.
I went with IE because I heard they are supposed to be on the quieter side of downpipes.
On top of the noise, the exhaust is essentially exiting right under the shifter so everything in the car was vibrating like crazy.

This would be your best solution

The seller has his Baun Performance OEM Fitment Resonated Midpipe priced very responsibly and that'll keep your new downpipe quiter than just the stock CBE, much deeper and sportier tone, plus it remains 3” to seamlessly connect to your IE downpipe (reducer built in where it attaches to the catback).
Thanks Jake. I was actually considering it and still might but I want to hear the car With the stock resonator first. I was hoping for a little more volume. A shop by me is helping out with the adapter and bumping it up to the correct size to slip over the OEM cat back.
If it’s still too loud I will definitely be contacting that seller though and appreciate the heads up.
