Got it. But now my son’s Mustang Cobra is on the lift for the winter and the boat is parked under that. Not sure when we will get to it. I may take it to a local muffler shop. It appears to be a simple installation.

I did the mechanic route, took two guys about 25 minutes, and they were taking their sweet time, I think I paid around $80. They got it right the first time meaning: Zero Rattles. Had I did it at home and did my test drive and discovered a rattle I would have to do it all over again, pain in the *** without a lift.

Super easy I did it at home. Longest hardest part was getting the car in the air. I used a chain style tubing cutter tool.

gave the stock ones to my neighbor for a scrap metal run and haven’t looked back

I should have mentioned that my install will be on a ‘21 RS5. Any others? Exhaust should be basically the same setup as the S5?

My bad. Turns out the VPS kit is only for the S5. Tony and I had a mutual mis-understanding but worked it out. Nice company to deal with.

If you have the RS5 you require the Bull-X kit. Not sure if that is the correct spelling for Bull-X.
