1. Mid pipe for my 5 door wrx

   Posted by JohnV on May 25, 2017

   Got my mid pipe and I installed it with out any issues at all. All you have to do is to bolt everything loosely and once you are happy with the fit go ahead and tighten everything. No need to make any modification and this is a very good combination with muffler delete. I love the sound, it seems that my car is now angry in a good way. Love it.
   A++ for the customer service. If you have SPT you will need the mid pipe if your purchase the muffler delete.

2. Great addition to my axleback

   Posted by Chris on Feb 26, 2016

   I had the 5" muffled axleback and bought this to upgrade it to a catback. Installation was pretty easy, didn't take me and my friend too long to get everything connected. Since this item was in stock when I ordered it, it shipped the next day
   
   If I was to describe the difference in sound from the driver's perspective, I would say that a good estimation is that what the car used to sound like with the back seats laying down, it now sounds like with the back seats up. I used to love how my car with the axleback sounded with the back seats down, so to be able to hear that with the seats up is awesome.
   
   I did have a few minor issues, but I was able to fix all of them. When installing the forward half that connects to the downpipe, it was basically touching the heat shield. Luckily that was easily fixed with rotating the pipe a little to where it had more clearance. I then had a leak develop where it connects to the axle back. I believe what happened is that as I drove, the exhausted settled in, so after tightening the bolts back up no more leaks were detectable. The last issue I had was some rattling, which varied from a slight clicking sound at idle to a loud metal on metal tapping sound while engine braking around a corner. I found that this came from the middle connection on the mid pipe. The connecting band was very close to the heat shield. Luckily the heatshield is pretty flimsy metal, so to fix it all we did was get a screwdriver and bend the heat shield so it had much more clearance.
   
   Overall I am very happy with my purchase.

3. Great quality midpipe

   Posted by Unknown on May 11, 2015

   It took almost a month from placed order to delivered but thats normal for build to order i guess. Quality of this midpipe is outstanding and so does the sound. I was worried about drone in my car but this np midpipe actually slightly quiet than stock midpipe under normal driving condition. The installation went smoothly with no issues or leak. Very nice midpipe overall and great sound!.

4. Awesome sound!

   Posted by Unknown on Apr 13, 2015

   Bought the mid-pipe and track-pipe (already have the Cobb DP). I was worried about the sound being excessively loud during daily driving and droning at highway speeds, but its neither. During everyday commute at light to moderate throttle the car has a nice deep rumble with no rasp. The volume isn't that loud at all. It doesn't drown out the radio or conversations in the car. on a scale from 1 to 10, i'd say its about a 5 during acceleration and quiets down to a 2 at a steady speed. It gets quite loud at WOT with a nice "anti lag" like pop between shifts. It sounds AMAZING! Gotta love that boxer rumble! installation was a breeze. everything fit perfectly. install time was about 30 min working in the garage on jack stands. Overall, very impressive product. extremely well designed. Definitely gonna get the Nameless DP soon.

5. Resonated Midpipe

   Posted by Lawrence on Jun 09, 2014

   This is installed in my 2012 hatchback with the muffler delete and a catted downpipe. Sound is amazing, car sounds aggressive, and after my protune, the car felt entirely different. Excellently crafted piece from Nameless just like all of their other products. From the heatshield and back, I run all Nameless because I care about quality. You can't go wrong.

6. Another great Nameless Product

   Posted by Nick Bristow on Sep 23, 2013

   I already had the axle back with 5" mufflers. The Mid Pipe arrived and as expected the quality was incredible. Installing it was very simple. Just unbolt the OEM setup and bolt this one in place. It is a 2 piece so keep all joints a bit loose until you get it adjusted to fit flush at the joints. Then tighten down
   
   When I started the car it sounded different. Was a hair louder but had a killer hot rod sound to it. My wife even came out and was impressed.
   I went for a test drive. I was told the mid pipe would add HP and torque. But I had no idea it would be as much as I felt. It was like a different car. My boost came on a bit earlier it seems and held longer. And the sucker pulled HARD from 3200-6000 RPM. Before the mid pipe I felt it flatten out around 5000.
   
   Driving in the car the sound is still just so boxer, but more pronounced now. I enjoy HEARING my engine and this setup is by far the best fitting and sounding system I have heard...and I have heard many

8. Great fitment and amazing quality.

   Posted by Anthony on Sep 15, 2013

   This midpipe fit amazingly well where 2 previous "ebay" midpipes most certainly did not. The design of the midpipe with the donut gasket + v-band flanges and flexpipe allowed for perfect adjustment making installation a breeze.
   
   If I had one knock against the midpipe, the last bend section sits really low. While this won't be an issue while driving around day to day, it did prove to be difficult when strapping my car down to a Mustang dyno. It seems like there is more than enough room under the car and around the rear diff that this design could be modified to allow for more clearance.
