You get factory warranty with the MPE, which is a big plus point.

Regardless, unless you either specced a sunroof or disabled ASD, you're not going to hear a massive difference of in cabin noise with any exhaust unless you've added race pipes. Some users even reported an out-of-synch sound between the ASD and the Exhaust.

I'm going with MPE + ASD Bypass Harness + Sunroof, In my opinion the best combination

Just my 0.02 cent though, other's will disagree

I had my Fabspeed sport cat fitted today. A couple of months ago I got rid of ASD via the bypass harness. I am running stock exhaust. I've only driven 20 miles or so on the new downpipe but wow - what a marked, positive difference. My first impression/feeling was that with the sportcat installed, ASD appeared to be back, and back in a good way. Obviously its not back as the harness is doing its thing (sending a no input signal to the amp) but the sportcat puts the sound back in the cabin - au natural!!

Sounds noticeably more raspy with more energy to the pops and burbles, you can also really hear and feel the turbo working more efficiently, it comes "on" sooner and the car feels more eager to go go go! (I guess because of the reduction of back pressure - allowing the gasses to escape quicker - and the design of the DP itself as the cat is located closer to the turbos than oem design). Sound from the stock exhaust when you hit 4,500 plus rpm is intoxicating. 20 miles in and very impressed. Lets hope no CEL in the future!!

Will likely go for MPE once the redesigned version is out - I love the Remus, especially how the mufflers are well hidden up inside the car, but MPE is cheaper and retaining warranty is a nice touch - plus MPE is made by Akrapa (or so I'm led to believe) so neither is a bad option!

In Germany, we have the Problem, that the MPE is not available any longer due to noise regulations. So the Remus system is an interesting alternative. The Akra obviously not comparable because of the much higher price.

By the way: hello to everyone! This is my first real post here 😊

I absolutely loved the REMUS when I saw it at Autosport International. I have not heard it but it looks superb. Great kit for the price tag.

I think that Remus has made a great development during the last years. Coming from a low price/ low quality brand to very well manufactured products.
