I do think the Remus tips look nicer

I definitely think the Remus tips looks better visually, could be interesting mixing pieces though

I'm thinking of doing AA mid and VRSF DP's first...car is definitely way too quiet.

I would do the axle back first because that huge muffler can is so unattractive, maybe when Dinan releases their axle back I will combine that with the AA midpipe, I definitely like how much smoother the car sounds with the AA mid.

I bought Remus but I’m a bit at a loss on tips. The nearly 1300 carbon tips is absurd to me, but probably looks the best. I started with the cheapest version Remus sells and will decide if I want to upgrade later.

Currently running AA mids and also painted the muffler black high temp wrinkle pain. Absolutely love it, very pleased especially since its not raspy and has a low tone to it.

Dinan is developing an axle back system that will hopefully come out sometime this year.

Granted that the engine is the same from the M3/M4, I think the best solutions are going to be ones that utilize a single mid pipe to create a cleaner tone.

I think Remus + Active is going to be a major winner on this platform as well

I haven't got the Remus yet but I'm curious to know if it'll link up with AA midpipe or if additional modifications are needed.

It's going to be a bit of a Frankenstein due to the design from the Active, but it will fit.

Remus axle back connected to OEM pipes followed by active mid pipe

This is what I was considering because I like the look of Remus the most and the sound of AA the most. It seems like a potentially expensive and difficult setup though, I would be really curious to hear how it sounds and also am curious to see what Dinan's axle back looks like since it should be a better value than the Remus.

The Dinan + AA and Remus + AA were/are the best combinations for sound on the S55

Would love to see it happen! If you need help, I would love to set you up

I would gladly take some help setting it up since I've no experience with modding, but unfortunately I'm on the other side of the country.
