Valvetronic catless Midpipe so far

I’ve been pretty skeptical of Valvetronic in the past but that has definitely changed. For the past week that I’ve had the Valvetronic catless midpipe it is paired with a v1 rear and let me say this things screams! I love how much louder it got with the valves open and can stay pretty quiet when I keep them closed around the neighborhood. I feel a bit of difference in power but need to confirm on dyno. The quality of the midpipe is amazing. I think it’s the best midpipe out there for the price. It looks just as amazing and it sounds great screaming through the canyons.
I’m going with the V2 rear for the benefit of the vacuum valves VS the electronic valves on the v1. Can’t wait for it to show up in a few weeks to see the difference.

How did you order the rear? Their site has showed out of stock for months and they haven't responded to any messages.

He usually restocks once a month or so. If you follow on IG youll see that he either just restocked or theres one coming up.

I installed the header back catless valvetronic exhaust this past week and yeah it screams lol. I think you'll appreciate the pneumatic valves vs the electronic ones.

What kind of difference do the vacuum valves make compared to the electronic ones?

Would you consider this set up, catless mid + valve rear, to be raspy or throaty? Also how is the smell.

Better from a reliability stand point.
