I have an 05 6MT with a coupe midpipe and it fits w/o any problems.
I've had it for about 2 weeks now and I like the way it sounds.
I definitely recommend it!

It's likely the transfer case that's the problem.
So I guess it would depend where it's located.
The interesting thing in the FSM is for the 2WD model is it gives a specific torque value for the nuts/bolts (ex: 30 ft/lb) whereas the AWD model lists a range for the same fastener (ex: 27-33 ft/lb).
Edit: A quick call to the parts desk shows different part #'s for the AWD and 2WD midpipe, but their (cursory) visual inspection couldn't determine any differences.

Always a wrinkle.
Guess we need someone to test an X.

I called Mark from Grubbs Infiniti to order the Coupe Midpipe but he told me they were all out and he had a waiting list for them already?! These things must be in pretty high demand but anyways I am third on the waiting list so if anyone is trying to sell theirs PM me, thanks.
