So the linkpipe has been installed and I have done the first highway miles in the car... Christ it is loud when you open the valves.

I would not see why you want to open the valves while cruising. It might be an experience when driving across some mountain roads, but luckily you can close them.

Over the weekend I will make a decent video of how it sounds and I will write another update for everyone. For now, I honestly ask myself the question why you would add a catless downpipe to this set up.

I now need to remove the ASD, because it has become completely obsolete.

Sounds great MR (literally)

Re cars with early software, let's face it as soon as you go for run in service they will update it anyway so you can't rely on that.

If you get a CEL without OPF im sure it will just be a minor emissions check code with no limp mode, same as removing / defective CATS etc. You can drive it with the CEL on if you like, but to get rid of the light you'll need a tune / ecu program.

Be interesting to see if Bootmod3 release a tune with OPF delete soon....

Your car goes in limp mode while there is also a CEL warning according to what I heard. I did not see it! In the end, it doesn't really matter. You can't drive it normally anymore. It reduces power considerably.

Software is implemented from a specific car in the production line. They just replace the old software. So if yours is produced after mine then you have the same software, especially if yours is EU like mine. You might even have a newer version than me.

I think the amount of cars having this software is quite limited. Mine was produced at the end of August even, and so far I heard of a handful cars having this option and all those were really early ones.

Just like any other electronic product they update software all the time. Tweaks and fixes etc.

Then older version's get updated come service time later on.

No need for that! Just being awkward in the software department if that is the case.

I will film it this weekend and then I need to edit it while also writing my story.

Knowing my planning next week I hope to finish it before next weekend.

Or maybe with the harness you can disable permanently the ASD, and not only "on demand" as with bimmerlink.

Did you fit catless downpipes and remove the OPF's or just remove the OPF's?

Coding it out works flawlessly for disabling ASD; no white noise.. Some folks are just paranoid and hear things..

Like the sound of their money flushing down the toilet by purchasing a redundant bypass harness..[IMG]https://media.giphy.com/media/aaQnKy1z8f1S/200w.gif[/IMG]

Where's the new Akra exhaust video?

I don't believe the sounds from the other video until I can see the car in motion....

Yup! Be aware that if you switch from one to another car, you need to reset the display accordingly. Contact Awron to get this done.

Mine currently tells me my car has 700 Nm and 500 hp hahah and it is not tuned

And this is how the Akrapovic exhaust on my car sounds like with a linkpipe instead of the OPFs



And this is how it sounds in comparison to a stock M2C with OPF



Read my thoughts here:
