Buddy of mine ordered the exhaust from last September, it finally came in! We will upload some sound clip soon.

Quality is top notch. But we don't understand why bmw designed such complicated retrofit program. :-(

Love it! Can't wait to see some videos. Stock mid pipe on the car?

I'm thinking of installing this paired with a PSI mid pipe.

We are going to need a lot of video/sound clips. Haven't seen many (if at all?) fitted to US spec cars so far.

Which decal is going on the side? The one from Brian O’Connor’s Supra, Jesse’s Jetta, or Torretto’s RX-7?

Never thought I'd dislike a diffuser as much as I do the M Performance one, hot damn. I don't mind the exhaust pipes and their layout, but the diffuser is just so awful to my eyes.

In tandem with a fairly mediocre sound - it's 100% nope from me.

I think the valves aren't really open much during standstill revs. It would be more representative to hear a drive off under heavy acceleration

Im pretty much in agreeance here and really dont think the sound is better than the OEM setup (based on the video of course).

I think we would need a video done with a stocker vs this at the same time with the same equipment.

Add in the price and its just a pass for me but I can see why some will consider since its a BMW issued part.

I personally think the secondary cats are limiting the true potential of this exhaust. Get rid of those then let's see how it sounds. By that time you're in the $10k ball park. That's a strong no from me. That's about 1/7th the price of the base car. No thank you.
