2026 G82 M4 — mid-pipe recommendations?

Hey guys,

I picked up my 2026 G82 M4 in November and I’m looking to upgrade the mid-pipe.
Mainly want something with better sound quality — deeper and more refined overall.

Car is stock for now.

What mid-pipes would you recommend?

Thanks

I personally have the MAD catless midpipes and MAD resonanted midpipe. I love the way it sounds. If you are going for performance I would recommend looking into the IRL midpipe or MAD.

If you want deeper then pick the single 3.5” resonated midpipe, plus a valve controller so you can choose when to be loud or not. Keep your stock rear section so you don’t induce drone.

I just installed MAD brand. Was very easy, done in the driveway.

Our non or resonated single midpipe is an easy choice. Throw a valve controller on it to complete the setup.
