The single midpipe provides a deeper growl and less rasp than your traditional x/h pipe. I enjoyed BMW's NA straight 6 and single turbo straight 6 sound for decades, but their twin turbo 6's have usually sounded way too raspy. When paired with catless downpipes, it becomes unbearable. The single midpipe tones down the rasp and makes for a more, IMHO at least, sophisticated sound.

I'm 100% ordering this midpipe. Valvetronics is asking more for theirs and they have reported fitment problems. AA is well known and I have complete trust in them since they've been in the game for many years. Can't wait
