Went from Track to Touring, and that took care of most of the drone. Mid-pipe for our FK8
Question for install, when mounting the awe front pipe that is included, will I need to purchase a 3' gasket??

You can re-use the DP gasket. The OE part number for this I find is:

Gasket, Ex Pipe
18303-T2B-A01
GASKET, EX. PIPE

Please verify the part number with your local dealer! This is from an online parts site and YMMV!

Anyone know where to find the Touring with the new dual phase midpipe in stock? Vendors never show what's in stock anymore.

I ordered straight from AWE themselves to get the Touring with dual phase midpipe. I don't believe vendors currently have any with dual phase midpipe in stock.

My dual phase midpipe has shown as "in production" for several days. Does anyone know if that means it is actually being made right now or is that just the status for the 10 weeks of queue time I was promised?

Imagine there are 4000 orders in the queue being built and scheduling to be built. Yours is somewhere in the mix. We are on a 10 week lead time. Appreciate your understanding.

Guys, for reference, I ordered my dual phase pipe May 11th and it shipped yesterday (5 Aug). Not knocking them, just want you all to have realistic expectations right now with the shortage of raw materials and the high flow of orders they receive.

This supply chain fiasco sucks. Don't blame AWE. I ordered my Track Edition the Wednesday before Thanksgiving 2019. It was at my house 2 weeks later. Great company with great support. Be patient. It will come ?

Everyday is a new challenge and we are continually pivoting to work through them in order to get systems built and delivered. As I've mentioned, without supplier shortages and delays, we are on a 10-week build time. If you order through a dealer, that could be shorter, or longer. I always recommend hitting up our awesome dealers first since they buy through multiple sources. Thank you again for your patience and if you need anything just let me know.

I’m having a rattle issue again around 1500 and 3k RPM at operating temps. I initially tightened up the exhaust parts and made sure everything was seated correctly in the hangers, and I even made sure everything was torqued down nice and tight. But for whatever reason I guess it won’t stay seating in the rear rubber hangers correctly and keeps getting loose and begins to rattle.

Any thoughts or recommendations

Did you ensure your clamps are ever so slightly overlapping the end of the slip fits? I see people using them to “seal the slots” but this is incorrect placement.

Did you ensure the slip fits all the way to the mid-pipe are bottomed out?

lmk!

Got around to installing the dual phase midpipe today. For anyone with an “off-road” downpipe, GET THIS. It COMPLETELY cleaned up the exhaust note and it sounds PERFECT now. Great work from AWE on this product.

Installing an AWE today on my '21. The front pipe is touching the oil pan and less than 1mm away from the passenger axle. Is this normal or a real concern? I don't really see any way to adjust that section.
