      The weight of the Remark Axleback was only compared to the weight of the stock muffler. The weight savings would've been the same if I included the mid pipe section. It shaves 10lbs either way.

  • @RexinOridle

    The OEM muffler acts as part of the rear diffuser. Removing that does cause drag, resulting in bent/bulged rear bumper overtime. I would highly recomment one of the Verus diffuser with a custom exhaust.

    The link to buy the A’PEXi N1-X takes us to a page that says it’s for 2013-2022 cars. But you said the muffler plate says “FA24” on it. Is it tuned for the 2.4 motor but also happens to fit the first gen cars?
    I’d like to buy it for my second gen, but after seeing HKS retune many of their exhausts for the bigger second gen engine I’m hesitant to buy anything that’s tuned for the first gen or is tuned more universally. Thanks!
