i believe so. the axle back was made to fit the stock mid pipes. this is a great alternative for the AWD crowd. But they are looking to make an AWD catback version as well.

Good news people!! Ark just let me know that they expect their first shipment of the GRIP exhaust in early May. That's like two weeks away!!! They couldn't give me a price yet but I'll keep you all posted. =)

the exhaust (muffler) fits both RWD and AWD. and that alone is $2K, the mid pipe is another $1.5K and from the pictures it looks identical to the shape of the RWD mid pipes. i doubt they have the AWD mid pipes. and IF they do....$3500? yikes.... =/

Hey Randre/everyone,

The exhausts are on their way and will be available in less than two weeks. It is not available on their site yet BUT you call Ark and they will honor your order. They have a limited amount in their first batch so please call in ASAP. Otherwise you'll have to wait for the second batch. Look/Feel wise please see my pics. Color - they will be polished throughout and you'll have options i think of either burnt tip or NO burnt tips so polished tips.

For pricing and availability please call Ark and ask for Michael...tell him Richie sent ya...
