Anyone here with the AFE exhaust? Seems like a good sounding exhaust at a lower price point.

I'm debating whether to retain valve control versus saying F-it and getting the Fabspeed muffler delete.

I'll write a full review with photos etc
It's definitely an aggressive sound but the best part is that it is still daily driveable. I have the same setup on my M235i which I daily drive everyday. Completely manageable, yet sounds incredible.

I am looking forward to your review and videos!

OMG it is fantastic. I am burning through gas just to hear the burbbles and pops. I could not be happier. Great product with no issues at all.

To me that's the best part. The turbo spools so much quicker and full boost hits harder. It's intoxicating!

Dear OP - Your questions is completely subjective with multiple right answers and really no wrong ones other than the stock exhaust which actually still sounds great but not 'loud' as you put it which again is a completely subjective thing. I can only share my love and vote for the MPE - the sound is intoxicating. I like a loud exhaust as well but not all the time. with the blue tooth controller sport mode is perfect. track mode is awesome and louder for the days you want that.

Is there any way to control the valves remotely on the Remus system? To make them open regardless of driving mode like in MPE Track Mode?

that's strange.. with my M2 I notice the valve is always open regardless driving modes or engine temp, i just simply install as per instruction given. actually i preferred the valves operates like OEM condition.

I control perfectly the exhaust flaps of my Remus with Bimmerlink app. The easiest way.

An OBD dongle like the iCar Vgate or ELM 327 and an Apple device.

Just found this video of an M-Performance Exhaust with 300cell Akra DP, Skip to 5:35



Exterior sound is pretty okay in-cabin noise with ASD off is sublime
