Yep! Stock downpipes and rear. I haven't heard it with valves closed because I disconnected them.

It would be interesting to know the weight of European OE midpipes with OPFs to see if there is a difference in weight compared to yours with kats |

Indeed. While not exactly the same, my experience with the similar e9X M3 exhaust gaskets was that despite them being a "must replace" each disassembly, was that you could reuse them just fine quite a few times before replacement was actually necessary. And since I did the F87 with ~200 miles on the clock, I wasn't all that concerned.

I had my AA midpipe fitted yesterday and so far so good. It has a nice sound on initial engine start up, but is still relatively quiet when idling on Efficient. When on the road in Sport+ I can really tell the difference and hear the exhaust with the window down. When dropping to 3rd/4th at about 4K revs it sounds sweet and I think I heard some turbo spool, but I need to spend some more time with it, but overall I'm extremely happy on my first drive with it. I just need to install the ASD bypass this evening to hear what it sounds like in the cabin with no fake noise. Fingers crossed it sounds decent.

With an adaptor in the OBD port and the BimmerLink app on your phone is it really that straightforward to open and close valves on the original exhaust / muffler?

You could probably get away with it, but for the price I just changed them anyway. Not just for AA pipe but any connection to bottom of DPs. Last edited by doughboy; 05-02-2019 at 02:39 AM.. |

emission sniff test
anyone go through a state emissions sniff test with the mid pipe installed?
I'm not concerned with the visual inspections, but wonder impact of having 2 less cats... I'm in Massachusetts thanks |

I am also quite interested to know about this for either the single or the EL midpipe.

I was told sometimes the gaskets can come right off and they don't need to be replace. Mine didn't come off as smooth and I had them replace them. I'd lean towards replacing them if you want to be safe. Sometimes the original gaskets can be reused without any problems.

So I've now removed the AA mid-pipe from my Comp as I'm trading the vehicle in for the CS.
Would anyone know whether the mid-pipe will fit on the CS? |
