I have a hand wash 5 minutes from the house. I take the kids with me. The kids get free popcorn and lemonade. The wife loves it!

My 2020 Caviar parked outside start/finish straight at Road America this last weekend. Added the Apexi/Tom's combo for exhaust, now debating what to do suspension-wise for a clean minimal drop.

i added a 20 to the stable myself. Only mod I want is the exhaust and was thinking apexi-Tom’s. Did the install affect any CEL or have any negative effects at all? Does the warranty get voided?

if you have a minute please pm me details on your thoughts on sound , where to buy etc..

Your caviar car looks mean!

Axle back shouldn't affect anything at all - warranty-wise.

Congrats on your pick up as well, love that color too. As someone mentioned already, no CELs or anything else to worry about with catback exhausts on these cars. Install was straightforward and simple as expected. The sound is fantastic IMO. Some may find it to not be loud enough, but it was exactly what I wanted. A nice rumble when your foot is on the gas, but no droning at all when cruising. I went resonated Apexi with the SS Tom's. Non-resonated may give some additional sound, but I can't comment on any added drone. Very happy with how it all turned out. Not quite as good as my ISF w/PPE headers and Borla exhaust IMO, but better than the Joe Z catback I had on the RCF. Good luck with getting your exhaust too, I am sure you won't regret it!

Congrats on the new beast.
The only time you need to worry about a CEL is when you swap out your primary cats ( headers ).
70% chance of it being triggered.
There are tunes to eliminate that though. In most cases, the headers supplier should provide it to you.

couldn't agree more! IMO this kit is more OE plus, not overstated.
