    I'm looking to get rid of the second cat, and keep the/a resonator. I don't like highway drone or super loud exhaust, and have been informed that I'm now too old because of my new stance on loud exhaust. Who'd a thunk it, mid 30's and am already an old guy... I don't mind a little growl, I just don't want the thing screaming at me, like the Mistress does to Dave.
    I'd like to get the middle section of pipe from the down pipe to the muffler. From what I understand the JCW and S muffler's are the same, the only difference is this middle piece and the tips. Anyone know where I can find this? I've searched and it's surprisingly difficult to get that piece or the whole JCW exhaust kit w/o buying the JCW tuning kit.
    Thanks yall :cornut:

    Is yours a N14 or N18 engine?

    Is 18308608933 the part you are trying to locate?

    N18, Thank the lort! And looks like that's it, but the only vendor that comes up when I search that number is ECS. I hate ECS. BUT, if I must.....:mad5:

    I considered aftermarkets but they all seem pretty dam loud and have basically a straight pipe to the muffler. I'll check out some Milltek videos and see how she sounds. So that video of your burn out at Fontana is pretty old? She was A-Screamin

    Thanks for the part number Metalman!

    Ok, found out I'm looking for the N14 JCW pipe, not $100 less, but over $50 less. The N18 JCW pipe still has some sort of a catalyst.
