What brand did you end up going with for the x-pipe?

Is this the one you are talking about? https://www.phastekperformance.com/C...pipe-11386.htm

It says its for Gen 5 but it fits Gen 6 too?

i used what the exhaust guy had in stock. Not sure what the brand is but it looked decent. Most exhaust shops have x-pipes handy and they can weld it to fit. Just goto a place that has like 1 guy doing all the work so you know if they have good reviews you'll be getting the work done by a guy who knows how to do their job.

Nobody really makes anything that's a direct fit for the 6th gen v6 to replace the resonator. So no matter what you buy, it's likely going to need to be custom fit by the installer. So paying for a brand is kind of pointless unless you have to.

Thanks! My noise has actually went away for now but this seems like a pretty cheap and easy mod that I think Ill do it anyway...

Do we need the 2.5 or 2.25 in and out?

Heh. I ended up cutting that off too.
