If they will change the mid pipe, they will change the S-pipe too. just tell them to be careful when taking out the O2 sensor, they are pretty expensive.
and yes, the mid-pipe is long, but I have fitted my ZPI Mid-pipe in the back of my tC with the back seats, and passenger side front seat down.

No problem. It is doable.

it's just like getting a catback exhaust man... sure he'll have less backpressure, but it's not like he's doing something crazy

Here is another newbie question...

If I plan on getting a full catback and headers...would the full catback include all the new pipes...midpipe, s-pipe, downpipe...etc.

Depends on what is included in the kit. you have four pieces of exhaust to replace. Header, S-pipe, mid-pipe and Axelback.

Some kits are Axel back only, which just makes the car sound more powerful, some cat backs are mid-pipe and axel back only, and I'm don't think many include their own S-pipe portion.
A Header is usually a single piece component, with the exception of the Monster Motorworks Header that comes with its own S-pipe because it can't line up with the OEM S-pipe.

So check to see what is included in the whole kit.

So basically Exhausts that say rear section only, don't come with the Mid-pipe. Like a full cat back would.
I noticed there are only a few exhausts for a tC that are a full cat back.

What are some of the Best Exhausts that are truly a full cat back?

I mean..my Magnaflow Cat Back is nice. But you gotta understand its a cat-BACK so its not gonna replace the secondary cat. So its not like what you get from replacing the midpipe and axleback. I'm just saying cuz a lot of people don't understand sometimes
why there car is so quiet after installing some catbacks and its cuz they still have both cats. Do a lil research. Look at picture diagrams and know what your looking at. Depending on your plans you can save money by doing research on things first.

I've had the Megan Racing Headers and the drift spec cat back system on
for a while now and my Check Engine Light has been on since I put it on.

I like the way it sounds.
