The 21st is an ETA, not an exact date.

We add one week to the ETA to be on the safe side. I would expect a tracking number by the 21 at the latest

Yes, I saw this video yesterday and was wondering why I haven't seen much of Remus in this forum.

I like what I see and what I hear. The price is a little steep, but I guess is the BMW tax

Anyone else installed the GPF back system? Really worried the sound will be too anti-social. Need to see more videos from outside the car.

They are not out yet. Hopefully mid december I will get mine and will update the forum.

I too felt the downpipe back system was too antisocial and hence changed mine to gpf back. The guys from Motech who installed Shmee's exhaust (in this video above) said they could literally hear his car from a roundabout which is 800 or so yards from their premises.

I have ordered in UK so not sure about US pricing. I think Mike@x-ph can help with ordering. As far as I know, this exhaust will need to be pre-ordered.

I think GPF back is basically an axle back, but with extra tubing to delete the resonator but preserves the GPF/OPF.

I have had no luck yet with the valvetronic midpipe. Valvetronic said they have never come across the issue i am having. I took the midpipe to a very famous exhaust fabricator near London and also to PCW and the advice was that the part of midpipe that connects to rigid downpipe is not angled properly and will need some modification.

There is also another issue, the gpf/opf sensor hoses are not long enough to reach the single midpipe due to their location. So I will need to modify that bit as well. Not as smooth sailing as i expected.

I thought it was $4600. It says $3109 on that website.

Edit- Never mind that was Dahler I was thinking about.

Is the Remus too loud?

i hope they make the full exhaust available for NA. It looks like it's only a cat back rather than from the downpipes like in Shmee's video. Anyone have a link or know of.a dealer that has the full system?

Base price is $3109, adding the tips will increase the price. They have 5 different types of tips.

Not sure I understand your question, are you asking if it's loud inside the car?

You won't find the full exhaust in NA. By law Remus is not shipping the cat delete pipes to the US. I've asked every distributor and called Remus directly. They used to sell them in the US 2 years ago but not anymore.

You can ask your muffler shop to fabricate you some if they are not too strict. Most here in Texas won't touch the secondary cats. I ended up buying stock cats from a forum member here and I plan to gut them out so I can turn them into straight pipes. I'll be posting a video with and without the cats once I get my exhaust.

Below is what I bought from a member.

No. In the Shmee video they seem to believe it obnoxiously loud on the outside. There is a point where its too much. This ain’t NASCAR after all.

Sound can be subjective. I personally liked how it sounded in Shmee's video. I'll find out once I experiment with and without the cats. If it's too loud you can always close the valves for a more civilized driving experience.

I’ll be glad to hear your opinion when you get one. Sound tone is objective for sure but what constitutes too loud is determined by city ordinances and neighbors unfortunately. At some point it’s irrelevant if you/me/us like it.

I'll definitely be mindful of the neighbors in the morning and night. Can't guarantee afternoons. As far as the city goes, meh.

Sports version is most likely tamer compared to the race version.
