Ordered on 8/30 and received directly from Germany on 9/7 (DHL/USPS). This controller was exactly what I was looking for. Prior to the controller, I found sport+ / valves open a tad too quiet from what I wanted out of my dinan rear section and mid pipe. But now, it is at the perfect volume I was looking for.
Install was a breeze even without a lift or Jack however, I do recommend. It took me about 5 min to install and 30 min for wiring management. I then, programmed A and C to homelink for quick access to factory and full open settings. I 100% recommend this to anyone in doubt but, I also hope it last a lot longer than the VSCs I was hearing about. Only time will tell. Thanks again Mike and X-PH for getting this to me so quickly! |

Although it does seem a pretty easy install, are there any good videos around that show the Install, with cable routing through the gromet as shown in the previous pics? The ones I found on YouTube has them mounting it under the car.

I haven’t found any but I assure you when you take a look at the grommets and truck space you will figure it out. The grommets are super close to the exhaust valves.

Install was a breeze (~10 minutes include wire zip tie management).
However, sometimes when pressing the B button, the flaps don't close so I just leave them open and try it again next time. Seems to work every other time. Meanwhile, the A button works like a charm everytime Paired with Gesi HFC, resonated single MAD midpipe, and stock muffler. Stage 2 BM3 OTS tune...really enjoying the combination with juuust the right amount of loud, and am done with exhaust tinkering. |

Works great and install was a breeze. Can anyone else confirm for me that the remote does not work on the valves with a remote start? It wasn't until I actually got in to start it is when the my controller started working, so seeing if anyone can replicate it.

Hi Mike,
Do you carry this for the G83 M4 on your site? I could not locate it? Any differences for M4 for installations compared to the M3 for routing, etc? Thank you |

I would be a bit careful with that. From experience installing the VSC2 controller, there's a lot of extra struts and bracing across the bottom of the car for the G83 because of the convertible roof.
Those two bolt areas for the VSC2 are taken up by those struts and can't be used to mount the controller. I wouldn't know how to access the trunk compartment with all of these extra parts in the way. I had to ziptie the controller to the strut braces. Pics attached. If I'm overthinking this LMK but it doesn't seem as straight forward as on the G80 or 82. Plug and play compatibility-wise, yeah there's no issues, but maneuvering around in there seems challenging. |

Usually my packages pass through customs in a day or two, but the valve controller probably looks a bit suspicious through the x-ray machine
