you are comparing 2 different products.

the MAD midpipe is a single and needs to be compared with the active single which retails at $1499

the $1999 option is for the equal length

hey guys,

Just started to catch up on what are good options for a midpipe. It looks like i am close to a decision on Mad or AA.

Is there any cutting of oem exhaust system requied for either of the AA and Mad resonated single midpipe?

Does one install more simple than the other? (I don't plan to do a DP or axel back anytime soon so this is probably the only mod)

Also, anyone know any good retailers to pick either of the midpipes from? (even better if there is a local shop in LA that do the sale and install together, but not opposed to a great deal online)

Thanks!
Jason

Yes, you cut the midpipe off the OEM muffler, and unbolt it from the downpipes. It does not affect warranty (BMW has the same procedure for installing the M Performance Exhaust).

+1

its a simple install for both brands and if im not mistaken they use the same cutting point

Picked up the AA Equal Length from Mike due to the sound being different from the single. I personally wanted something with a different sound compared single midpipes I have heard. We'll see how it sounds once its on the car and I'll sell it used if I absolutely hate it. The price point of the MAD for a single is really appealing though.

Our midpipe has two cuts that need to be made the middle dimple (factory cut point) the rest is a simple bolt on. Same goes for going back to stock. You can use the clamps we provide or buy an extra set.

I believe euroklass is close to you and they are a stocking vendor. We have a forum code MAD that can be used on our site.

Is the “out of stock until May 30th” just for orders placed now or also for those who placed orders when it was saying May 15th?

It affects all orders.

Hey Folks,
When it comes to mid pipes, there are a bunch of great options on the market. But if you are truly looking for the best sound experience, this is it. We have designed our single mid pipe with an Equal Length configuration in to deliver the deep and aggressive, sound down low that everyone loves and communicate a high frequency high-pitched experience that helps the rather flat sounding at S68 have a more exotic sound characteristic up in the higher RPMs.

Is it the cheapest system on the market? Not at all. But it is in stock and you do get what we believe is a much more pure and engaging sound profile than the other mid pipes on the market. Nothing wrong with going with a cheaper set up but if your goal is sound quality and there's no other option. If you just wanted it loud, then there are probably cheaper options on the market that might fit better for you. But for those who want the best sound, this is it!!
