Default AWD 2011 Exhaust systems?

What's up CL,
I can not for the life of me find any online. I believe my Y Pipe is rusted away might as well replace it with something cheaper and sounds meaner.
How do y'all with AWD manage this? Everything I found is for 2013+

Currently I'm running the tanabe medallion axle back exhaust system on my awd 06 GS. And for about a year I had the invidia. Both fit awd perfect because the rear of the GS on the awd is exactly the same as rwd. The exhaust only differs in the middle section.





Pm me if you are interested in the invidia exhaust

The Invidia mid pipe will fit an AWD with modifications, the passengers side exhaust pipe has to bent or replaced in order to fit. There are other threads about this process some say it can be cut and welded back together. When I had mine installed they made a custom pipe to make it fit. I'll take pictures if needed the next time i change my oil but any decent exhaust shop can make it fit.

Personally I love the tanabe exhaust. It fit like a glove using the stock hangers and bolted perfectly to the original parts. Not that the invidia was any different. But the sound from the medallion is perfect, loud enough to be sporty and aggressive, but loud enough to be obnoxious
