Exhaust arrived, packaging was perfect, no damage to anything. Exhaust fitment was spot on, removed my 3.5" single midpipe and this one bolted right up. Sound is very crisp and no rasp at all at idle while revving to the moon, louder than my 3.5" single midpipe at full throttle and valves open, sounds stock with valves closed. Will have videos when weather cooperates.

Videos with valves open and stock downpipe/muffler, recorded with insta360 x4 camera.

Stock downpipes are recommended, wont sound good with catless, catted downpipes need additional resonators.

Here's a boring 12 min video of just driving around, at 2min mark i open the valves. Increase the volume, the gain was set low on the camera.

Nice man - love the fact that you keep two pipes and also get rid of the crossover.

[Shaninnik]

Looks very nice! Is it a small flex section there? Would be even better if they offered resonated (I have AA DP)

Yup, useless crossover is gone.

They do offer resonated but without an xpipe, so one or the other.

[GolfCoyote]

Sounds good, a little throaty almost. I wonder how the resonated version sounds

[viciousmo]

Thanks for pulling the trigger first. I should have mine on next week and will pair it with res catless dp at first. I suspect it to have some rasp down low but full throttle, I am hoping it will sound like Valvetronic's prototype EL mid that g80_soom had on his manual G80. Otherwise, catted dp goes on.

Yeah, I am wondering too how resonated will sound, especially if it has no X or any other means to cross exhaust flow.

Small video at idle with valves open, recorded with insta360 x4, my s24 clips and can't pick up the sound correctly, seems most phones can't honestly.

Dude, I freakin love it! Can’t wait till you post some more clips

[JTO24]

As soon as I saw her post I came here to see if the video was from you haha sounds so good!

Edit: do you think the stock brace will work? I imagine so given the pipe diameters

[GolfCoyote]

I still think it’s funny that this AliBaba Chinesium company is innovating parts and meanwhile a lot of the big players in the aftermarket for this platform are recycling the same designs over and over and over just putting a different logo on the side of the thing.

[SwankPeRFection]

Might as well put your stock brace back in now.

[JTO24]

Awesome! Just ordered it through Emily. Can't wait!

How does the sound compare to the Single mid you ran before?

Thats probably because they all literally selling the same midpipe, same silicone intake, brace, oil cooler guard, etc...many of them look the same.

[AhsanU]

Sounds pretty good/interesting.

I may pull the trigger and give it a try as I'm curious how it'll sound with catless downpipes.

JTO24 do you have catless downpipes by any chance? If yes, I may just wait until you get yours done.

I have MAD res catless DP currently installed and my midpipe will be arriving Mon/Tues. Will share clips with you guys.

Its much louder at full throttle compared to the single, higher pitch. Actually surprised how much louder it is even with stock dp/muffler

[forcefed]

Valves open, stock dp/muffler. I'll try to get the camera below the spoiler next time to hide the wind noise.
Also noticed there's more asd burbles and they're much punchier than the single midpipe.

Thanks for the video! Can you also record some interior clips? I’m interested to see if there’s any drone

Honestly i don't know what drone sounds like, i've never had an exhaust the drone's before. I'll keep looking for any funky sounds with the valves open/closed at low/mid rpm but so far can't say i notice any annoying sounds with this midpipe. At what rpm/gear does it normally occur at?

Its different for every exhaust setup. So I can’t tell you a specific rpm/gear when drone occurs.

Any video, exterior or interior, is greatly appreciated! I’m almost set on buying one, but want to hear more of how the car sounds under WOT
