After work trip's per diem and saving up, finally pulled the trigger on getting a Baun Performance Downpipe and Midpipe! Being able to get both for the price of an IE downpipe... Win win! Can't wait to drive it





Is that the stock v band clamp at the turbo? I reused the stock clamp and it fits so that there no way to tighten it any more. Don't think it was like that with the stock downpipe. Wondering if I screwed it up somehow.

It is the stock v band clamp and after running it several times to fully heat it up, I've been able to tighten it so there's not that much Gap left.

I was able to take the bumper off, install the brackets, and route the wiring. I routed the wiring up and zip tied to the very upper part of the bumper so it would be out of the way. I need to change out to bolts that mount the hella 500ff lights to the bracket and then route the switch wiring through the firewall.... then I can mount them up.

What percentage of the tint u r using?
My goal is to minimize the yellow reflector and would be good to have a reference before I do it.
Thank u.

I actually went with the lightest tint, but I warn you, I yanked it off after a few days. I started getting micro cracks in the lenses
