Okay, I want you guys to watch the videos again but this time close your eyes.
Tell me that doesn't sound like a Integra that's either been straight piped or has a cherry bomb "exhaust." This sounds awful. The stock exhaust is quiet but sounds better than this.

Why do you guys insist on using such an antiquated coupling method for the pipes? It looks so bad compared to v-clamps. This isn't the year 2000 anymore and for the price you guys set you need to keep up with the market.

That's why I sold my M4. There's nothing you can do in my opinion to make TWO 3-cylinder 1.5L engines sound good.
BMW priority is economy + torque + throttle response = 3 liter 6 cyl split into two tiny turbos that totally kill the engine sound which is why you're left with the sound of TWO 3-cyl 1.5L engines put together down the line by asymmetrical exhaust tubes.
I now drive a 2009 M6 V10 and love every second of it.
Just my 2 cents.
PS: cars I owned
2013 GTR (better sound and way better car than M4)
2008 M3 coupe DCT (2nd best sound) will buy another one to keep
2015 M4 DCT
2014 M6 coupe DCT COMP PACK(better sound than the 6cyl but still suffers from tiny turbos killing any good exhaust note.

The sound and looks is about the only thing the V10 cars have going for them. Be prepared to spend a lot of time in the shop.

It's an amazing machine. I'm planning on doing oil change every 3k miles and stay on top of everything else.
I was able to find a 2009 with only 32k miles and 11 years of BMW dealer maintenance records by the same owner.
At 9mpg city (the way I drive) it's definitely not a good daily.

Perhaps a bumper/ diffuser mounted camera would've caught the sound better.

I've heard other Armytrix's in person and they really rip.
Seemed too load and raspy for my taste.

I have to change the subject sorry but saying a (GTR) twin turbo POS"Altima" is better makes me laugh!

I don't like to bad mouth companies, just provide some criticism…but do you guys even do any R&D? You guys did a poor job with the S55 ArmyTrix exhaust, and outdid yourselves by doing an even poorer job with the S58. What in the rasp is that, though? Might as well keep it stock.

Can't agree more. Many have said the exhaust does not sound great on the forums and YouTube videos, that feedback should be taken seriously since those are your potential customers. They need to stop production on this exhaust and take it back to the drawing board unless their target is deaf people or hearing impaired.
