AA mid-pipe+VRSF downpipes

Anyone running this setup? Want some more noise/pops/bangs on lift off and replacing just the mid-pipe didn't really do it for me (even though it removed the OPF).
Don't want more power, just improving the sound.

i went the opposite way and just added the Remus Race to the AA midpipe. pretty loud enough for me.

I've got the Wagner HFC's with the AA Midpipe.

Sounds great and only loud under full throttle with exhaust open...

I would think sound wise your path would turn out almost the same.

I actually had the Remus race+ Remus mid pipes and it was so bad (raspy) i got rid, opf was still on though.
I think the current setup i have is much better just needs a little more.

That's great.
Do you get the lift off farts (not the burbles) like the F80's do?

Before I got BM3 it was louder overrun in Sport & Sport +.

After BM3 I dialed it all out except in Sport Plus above 5K.

BM3 allows you to adjust the sound level and what RPM range you want the burbles/

Perfect now.........

I went with the AA mid pipe and stock exhaust because I wanted to clean up the sound and give it a little more growl in sport and sport+, also when getting on the gas in efficient it has a nice sound when climbing gears. Adding the aftermarket exhaust would give it more noise, but IMO it would be too loud for daily driving.

I really want to run VSRF downpipes, into the AA equal length midpipe feeding into my spare M2 (n55) performance exhaust setup.
Pretty much a hodge podge of different parts that I'd love to see come together
