Thanks man.

Car sounds good OP. I have the same exhaust, different downpipes and different stage two tune, but sounds similar to mine.

I've been thinking about this exhaust- what did it run for the catback? Did you do the electric or vac valves? I don't want to use an app to control it and I don't have PE original- so I'd like to put in a normal switch to control it. Last thing I need is a fricken app on a phone to manage my exhaust.

FI Exhaust is vacuum driven and uses a remote control (on our cars) to operate the valves (with an option to set it to the RPM parameters for automatic opening of the valves).

I thought I saw both vac and electric valves listed on their web site.

Perhaps for other cars, but I am fairly confident our cars only use vacuum with FI. When in doubt, call FI.

Yeah Thats the one complaint I have over the FI is the vacuum controlled. Vacuum valvetronic exhausts are extremely unreliable.
