Default Options for Titanium Mid Pipes

Does 2015 parts fit 2020 TE? I found a titanium front and mid pipe and I want to make sure it fits before ordering

All the part catalogs just say 2015 and 2016, but I doubt they are constantly updated

Thanks

Shoot us a text and we can get you taken care of on Monday with fitment and pricing.

One of our customers just received their TI midpipe for their GSF from GTHAUS as well..

I don't have the answer, and normally wouldn't respond because of that, but I do have some info that might help:
1. They're the same motor, so bolts/pipes/routes would be the same.
2. I DON'T know about chassis and/or braces differences, whether there's more or less or same, but here is a picture of a standard RCF underside and if you want to have a look under yours to see if they're a match:

Oh that's perfect I'll try to get the car on a lift asap and I'll take pictures to share with everyone

I'm almost positive things are the same and will fit, just wanted to make sure before spending 3k$ on some pipes lol

Doesn’t the track edition have Ti mid-pipe & exhaust already?
You're just trying to eliminate the oe cats? Resonators?

My Novel headers are black cerakoted now, they should be going in some time in the next few days along with the titanium mid pipe

That means two pairs of cats and one pair of resonators will be removed

Hopefully this spices things up a little bit

That would've been an option but I really wanted to stick with inconel or titanium for any changes

With the Novel headers I didn't have a choice, at that price they should've been something more exotic/lighter but beggars can't be choosers
