here are some more pictures of the ATLP jpipe with 3rd cat delete - stock vs ATLP
low end is about the same from 0 - 3000RPM, 3800RPM+ she pulls like a bat out of hell - once v-tec hits - shesss outttttt! very happy and satisfied! better performance, and loving the sound - has a slight exotic gurggle with my greddy (this also reduced about 90% of the in cabin drone i was getting from my greddy)! i will post some video/sound clips when i get some free time

Ok, now that we have all received our J-Pipes this post went silent -- everyone must be happy. I am curious about your thoughts now that you have received it and have likely installed it.
I received mine last week and only tonight had an opportunity to install it. As noted by many previously, the part looks great, built strong and fits perfectly. I had one stubborn nut on the 3rd cat, but otherwise the install went smoothly. One other observation was how heavy the stock J-Pipe was.
First real drive will be tomorrow, although I did take it around the block to ensure there were no rattles or rubs. I've been tracking my mileage so I can add some feedback to the other post regarding mileage.
I'll have my J-Pipe installed onto my stock system for a couple of weeks until the ATLP quads arrive, which should give me a chance to 'feel' the difference, before and after.
Thanks Mike -- so far it's been worth the wait.

I agree I am the first one to be quiet after being desperate with no response...I have been working and I have no time yet to install what i received 3 days ago. J-Pipe and Race pipe are in my hands package indicated both weight about 20 pounds...
Good deal in also reducing some weight to the car with these pipes.
Any sound clips from anyone? Also im interested in feedbacks from those who installed them from the last batch. I heard it pull insanely starting at midrange...M3 KILLAS here we come

I installed both J/Test Saturday night. I am now fully bolted with the exception of pre-cat deletes and I have to say, it's like driving a totally different car power-wise. The best way to notice subtle improvements, for me anyway, is a hill near my house that I stop on, then turn left. With VSA off, every mod makes it harder to not spin the tires. As soon as that clutch is out, even just feathering the gas, I get some spin.
Has anyone weighed the stock J pipe and cat vs. the ATLP setup?? Seems to be a pretty big difference. I bet I've shaved 50 lbs off the car's weight with the bolt-ons, putting it ~3430; not too bad for a car in this class.

Lift using some heavy duty contruction equipment.
I really wanted to install the j-pipe asap last week and was out of the area of a descent shop. So I found an interesting way to raise my car to get the pipe on.

WOW! I would never even think of trying to lift my car that way. There is entirely too much risk involved. You could have easily crushed fuel line, or and number of parts of the underbody. All I can say is better you than me!! 
I installed mine with just the ramps you have under yours without any problems...
