I've got the full-size muffler and mid-pipe to replace the OEM back half on my 2021 C14. Some quick observations:

1) saves a chunk of weight... something like 25lbs to 30lbs;
2) having a removable baffle is good, and it runs well with it in - but it's really very nice without it too (much less restrictive);
3) on the upper end of the RPM range (eg. 8k and up) it really shines, especially with the MRP flash;
4) fit and finish are top notch, and it popped right onto the OEM front half without a hassle (just make sure you tighten down the clamps well);
5) with or without the baffle installed, NOW the motor sounds like the 1.352 liter monster it is;
6) picking one up from a fellow COGger at a great price was amazing!

NOTE: passing along what was shared with me, pay attention to the center stand stopper when aligning the center pipe -- there's no bracket to bolt on the center pipe (it's so light you don't need one) which means that what's welded onto the pipe is actually the stopper for the center stand... I repurposed the rubber bushing from the OEM exhaust and pushed it through a hole on the center stand leg so there's no metal-on-metal contact.

Well worth the modest investment. You won't be disappointed!
