VSC 2 Valve Controller Quick Review

HTTP 410 · 02-09-2022, 07:36 AM

Still haven't received mine yet. It'll be four weeks on Monday. It was supposed to be here tomorrow, but UPS has updated the delivery date to "We'll get back to you" due to "global weather delays".

What does global weather delays mean?

It's UPS's excuse for not having their shit together.

You must be kidding me, I ordered 2 weeks ago and it has arrived today. + I live in The Netherlands (Amsterdam)

I ordered on 1/16 and my status is "Significant weather events across the globe are impacting the UPS network. Although your location may not be impacted by adverse weather, the movement of packages in the network may be impacted by weather conditions in other areas."

It's been a cluster from the very beginning.

Installed mine today and the sound is significantly better than before, tone is much deeper and the idle is way improved. Car also sounds a lot better when not under full load and the burbles are more pronounced aswell. Very happy

Next mod: Cat-back Remus Race

hockeygoalie35 · 03-01-2022, 02:31 PM

Just got mine, plugged it in......nothing. I'm supposed to hear the valves move right? (when the car is powered, but engine not running).

squadra21 · 03-01-2022, 04:20 PM

Does anyone have a sound clip?

I guess you either need to get the car running or use diagnostic mode (press start button three times) to hear the flaps opening.

You can hear them but it's subtle. I would recommend using a flashlight and looking in the exhaust tip

hockeygoalie35 · 03-04-2022, 07:59 AM

Yeah, mine's definitely busted or incompatible. In diagnostic mode, the flaps are closed, hitting each button does nothing. I'm in contact with CG Precision.

Have an 2022 M3 Comp, 7.21 software update.

or get an aftermarket exhaust

I have the active autowerke exhaust, and I can easily see the valves.

I just ordered my VSC; I will be posting an install video and a review of the before / after sound.

chicagofan00 · 03-04-2022, 10:03 AM

I got mine the other week…still haven't installed it. Was really hoping I could wait until I get my Remus exhaust but with that being delayed so much I might just throw it on the car anyways.

m20e3087 · 03-09-2022, 09:28 PM

For those with stock exhaust, we need the single valve option instead of two right? Also if I get the two valve option (incase I upgrade my box in the future) will it work with my current setup?

the stock exhaust has 2 valves.

For those who were asking for sound comparisons/an install guide, I made this in my spare time. Hope it helps some of you out!

Thank you for the review, did you check if the valves are opening all the way?

I did not - just trusted they were based on the sound
