As you all know, I have been waiting for 6 months for Fabspeed to resolve my Bypass Exhaust situation.. So much time and effort wasted..
I am completely disappointed in everything Fabspeed has done so far, headed over to Auto Tuning House to do some aesthetics and decided to have them pull the Bypass off and went with an exhaust that fits properly no issues. Install took barely and hour and a half while joking around in the shop.. no hassle, perfect fit and sounds Went with the Resonator Delete Midpipe to correct the damage the install of the first Fabspeed Bypass caused to my OEM Midpipe. Dinan Free Flow Exhaust

Sounds Awesome! Glad to see you finally have your exhaust all figured out! This one looks like it fits much better.
I love the sound it makes when you shift gear under those hard pulls. Definitely don't get the same drama from dct. Can't wait to hear it in person.

Thanks! And thanks for following whats been going on in the other thread. Will have a real happy ending when I get a refund on the Fabspeed Bypass and send it back to them, such a waste of time and energy!

The Dinan exhaust is great looking in person and the main pipe with the actuator is beefy. I initially checked the assembly and realized during shipment the resonator opening that slips over the muffler was bent and it wasn't fitting. During the install did the shop just slip the resonator pipes over both ends and just use the supplied 80mm clamps to seal it? |

The main pipe is what I liked, their design basically dump everything thru there. When its open the exhaust gases always look for the path of less resistance so everything comes out thru there. Correct, the midpipe slips over the OEM pipe and over the Dinan Exhaust end. We had to expand the clamps just a little to get them over the tubes but they sealed properly. You will love this setup, the sound is amazing!

Going to share this out because I have got about 4 different people asking me thru PM's so maybe its good info to share.
The Mode Carbon Lip comes with plenty of 3M, but all of it is towards the front area of the lip. All the OEM holes in the lip are towards the rear of it to reuse the OEM hardware. I think Sam@ModeCarbon did a great job with it for ease of install. Although I believe the 3M would hold no issues at normal speeds I personally don't trust just 3M in that frontal area if I plan to do 120-130 mph. I plan to track the car at some point and want to do full tracks not just Autocross and this car in a straight can easily do 120-130. The CF was not hard to drill, we actually just presented the additional screws Mode Carbon provides and slowly drilled them in. Cons is you are drilling new holes in the bumper, I had a heartache doing this. Actually, I had to take couple beers to grow a pair and ALLOW my shop to drill them. But I rather drill new holes in the bumper than having the splitter fly off and me running it over into pieces.

Exactly, can't be seen. And I don't plan on removing the splitter so I am good with adding holes to the bumper.

Finally getting around to edit the videos of the BMW M Track Days. Couple pics while I do the vids.
Was a blast.. Ran the M3 CP and M2 on the full Homestead Miami Speedway layout (editing some vids) Ran the M4 on a short Autocross layout they had. Did 0-60-0 drag race in the following: 550M (36 miles on the odometer), X6M, M6 Coupe, M6 Convertible
