Put a rock..
no wait.
Put a sponge you would use to wash car with- under accelerator pedal.
1 of those 2.5" thick- 4" wide- 6 " long sponges.
Taped to bk side.
Smooth accel <dusting hands off>
Now the exhaust is more maintenance. As potatoes with a hole bored thru C/L, longitudinally, then shoved in tail pipe of each side, to "self shave" into a perfect fit, is a bit of a maintenance item.
Yes, its more a restriction than a baffle, but the potato, itself, does have some
( more than many would think)
sound absorption property's,
that not many other vegetables in the standard produce counter lineup possess..
Nor do many vegetarian's care too see used for this... anymore than PITA member cares too see animal hide used to detail a cars paint.
Especially the PBS ~ "Jazzy Vegetarian".

Very simple...
1. Make a post on one of the s550 Facebook pages or on this forum asking to trade catbacks for a stock one. The car will still be loud but not obnoxious.
2. Figure out what brand of headers you have. Contact that company to see if they can sell you Catted mid pipes with “factory connect”(3-2.5 reduction)
3. Buy a 600 dollar ngauge/tune combo from Lund racing. Tell them your mods. Send pictures if you have to. Tell them you want 100% stock shifting. She will need to run 91 octane+ exclusively.
All this shouldn’t cost more than 1000 dollars, is minimally invasive, and you retain the benefits of having a modified car.
Hope your wife ends up loving her purchase! I know mine loves driving the fun car

I ended up finding a local speed shop. They said they would swap out the Corsa headers with stock headers (w/cat) and adapt them to the Borla exhaust. They also said the CAI shouldn't effect the stock tuning too much, but that they would tune it using their account online (I think it was FM tuners or something). The swap out and re-tune was quoted as 1500 bucks.Very simple...
1. Make a post on one of the s550 Facebook pages or on this forum asking to trade catbacks for a stock one. The car will still be loud but not obnoxious.
2. Figure out what brand of headers you have. Contact that company to see if they can sell you Catted mid pipes with “factory connect”(3-2.5 reduction)
3. Buy a 600 dollar ngauge/tune combo from Lund racing. Tell them your mods. Send pictures if you have to. Tell them you want 100% stock shifting. She will need to run 91 octane+ exclusively.
All this shouldn’t cost more than 1000 dollars, is minimally invasive, and you retain the benefits of having a modified car.
Hope your wife ends up loving her purchase! I know mine loves driving the fun car
All I have to do is find the stock headers and cats.
Then I have to sell the Corsa headers. They have less than 22k miles on them. I have no idea what they are worth, but I know what they sell for new, so I guess thats a starting place.

I have stockers from my 19 with 6k miles on em. However shipping would be dumb. As for knowing about a tune. when in normal mode is it going through all the gears in normal mode driving? like 1-2-3-4-5. cause no tune in normal mode is 1-3-4. or something. Been awhile but I know it skips second with no tune in normal mode reg driving. I would honestly keep the exhaust and headers and get a resonator. never heard that cat back in person so I cant comment on that. My active exhaust with LTH no cats and a magnaflow tru x is amazing. even with my stage 2 whipple. Quiet mode makes my exhaust almost non existent.

Yeah, I know that shipping is dumb. But at this rate, its still less than the dealership. If you are interested in getting rid of them, PM me.
The primary reason to add back the cats is so the local ford dealership will work on the car. I have already talked to them and they have resisted doing any work without a stock tune or stock equipment. The car only has 22k miles on it, so warranty issues are still concerning.
I know this is counter to everything you guys do, but she is adamant about getting it back to stock.
BTW- the car shifts 1-2-3-4-5 in normal. It barks the tires in 1-2-3-4 if you accelerate out of a turn. It does not skip any of the gears in any mode unfortunately.
