Neither have I, and I wanted to see them before getting one, but I pulled the trigger on the purchase anyway. Just the sound alone will keep me happy for a while even if the numbers don't demolish the competition's.

Thanks
Considering that the revised Y pipe is not ready yet, if you order now, no you will not get it. As another member just mentioned he picked his up and did not have it.

I would definitely wait until the revised Y pipe is out and save yourself the headache so you don't have the possibility of running into the issue.

Just got mine installed this weekend. I must say that I love the sound. I decided against messing with the stock cats so sent back the Berks HFCs and gonna do intake instead. I am having problems with the xyz hitting the transmission mounting bracket. Its weird if I let the car sit for a while in my garage and then take it for a ride. Once I put in reverse it makes a rubbing sound and last for a good minute. By the time I get out of my neighborhood and up to 30-40 mph the sound goes away and doesn't came back until the next time I let it sit for a while. I am gonna get in contact with Tony about this. Paid alot of cash for this exhaust and it doesn't need to be making an annoying sound like that, But other then that the exhaust sounds amazing. It keeps the stock tone and when cruising you can barely hear the exhaust until you actually get on it. I ordered mine from B2AutoDesigns which is an awesome vendor with the best price I could find on them. I will get some videos with my Gopro sometime soon and post them on the thread.

This is already a known issue with the fitment on these motordyne exhausts. Several members have been having this issue and Tony is aware of it and is in the process of a revised Y pipe.

Damn that's not good at all. Have you talked to Motordyne about the problem. I have got to get mine fixed even though it only happens every once in a while.

Am I the only one with no issues what so ever?? Did anyone have their exhaust professionally installed? I sold mine to Huwee and I see he had rattling.. I never had one problem, weird noise, etc. I'm very surprised by this. I know people were having trouble with install and it took me a while to figure it out with the help of my local shop but install was 2-3 hours.

Well me and my friend installed mine and took about two hours. The Y pipe can only go on one way and on the passenger side of y pipe there is very little clearance for the pipe and transmission bracket. That is where I think it is mainly rubbing at. For the price this exhaust cost it shouldn't have that kind of problem. Motordyne def needs to do something about this. Maybe there is a issue between the Autos and Manuals.

If you use the spacers, it will barely with much fiddling. Mine barely cleared after much adjustment.

I installed mine on my back in the driveway. Yes, it took some fiddling and adjustment to get it to fit perfectly. I had to go back twice and make other minor adjustments to get better ground clearance. But that is on my installation skills, not the parts themselves. No fitment issues. No noises. No rubbing. It's a close fit near the subframe, but it doesnt rub.
