Should be just as easy. You'll notice when you take the stock midpipes off they have brackets in the same place (extra support because the cats are pretty heavy). Bypass pipes are pretty light so those plates become kind of superfluous. I guess circuit werks included them anyways. Use them if they line up nicely and it makes you feel better. If they're making aligning the rest of the pipe a pain, I don't see any harm in chopping them off.

This is what you want to do. Pretty easy and if you can weld it's free. If not i'm sure a shop will do it for less than an aftermarket muffler. I've done the CRIOS mod and tried a Circut Works muffler. The link is by far the best sound and no drone. It's a great winter project if you live in colder weather.

Found a set - paid for and inbound should be here in about a week... can’t find any YouTube audio clips on this configuration with stock exhaust hoping I don’t regret...

Boxxster you like the sound correct? So “stock exhaust” being too quiet (1) and aftermarket China or Borland being LOUD (5) these are just right when installed on factory exhaust (3)?

I want something I can still ride around neighborhood and with my wife yet know it is a sports car but not a track car... 😎
