It's not hard to understand, the CFRP DS was too big to fit, making it with a thinner diameter would have meant making it thicker (more 'material') with no advantage in weight saving but a lot of extra cost. Basically useless.
But maybe someone lives better knowing there is a carbon fibre CF under their car at any cost even though it would have no advantage.
Thanks for that, didn’t know. So Alfa Romeo engineered a solution where they didn’t have to add OPF, thereby maintaining a great exhaust note? Maybe BMW should hire those guys
