buying AA EL for my m2c (newb questions)

Hi, m2c 2020 EU version with gpf here.
Id like to change my exhaust system, and right now i am leaning toward the aa el midpipes. I've read alot of topics on the forum but need some confirmation if you dont mind.

So my question is: do i need any additional connecting parts or anything or i just straight purchase the AA EL midpipe and thats ready to mount? I will also change the axleback system in the future (possibly AA also) so do i need to buy any additional parts?

My next question is: the gpf will be removed so if i understand correctly i will also have to buy the leib gpf deleter and that should fix the computer problems right?

When you switch to the AA axleback in the future, youll need different connecting pipes. I'd call Active and explain you plan on switching and how they advise purchasing.

As for the EU question, I am no help.

Cars with GPF will throw a CEL and go into limp mode when you change the midpipe. You can fix this by getting the GPF bypass or getting it tuned. Or you can just ignore it and delete the code when it pops up

... but it will go back into limp 10 seconds later when you nail it.

If you ditch opf then you need opf delete or tune.
