If one fits nice expensive carbon fibre exhaust tips, what's to stop some dork stealing them ? Are they screwed on or welded on ?

Anyone knows if the setting on mpe change back to default every time you switch off the car? Ie. If I set the mpe to track mode and turn off the car. When I restart the car will it changes back to normal mode or stays at track mode?

Kind of back to back. I really wished they had the same sequence and duration of revs and lift off. Also they should have done it in the same mode ( sport or sport+ ) and not different ones. It should effect the throttle response and a lift off and the sound.
That said, it seems like the stock exhaust is deeper sounding than the MPE in street mode.

What about the cabine noise with the M Performance exhaust compared to the OEM?
Is it louder inside? At cruise speed on e.g. motorways : annoying, unpleasant, irritating ??? Don't ask this for myself, but the wife is relatively sensitive to this. So before deciding, better think twice... |

So in the exhaust sport mode is there any difference between comfort/ sport+? Or is the only difference sport and track? Basically what I'm asking is does the valve ever open up when in sport mode on the exhaust and sport+?

Yup! I too can now confirm this as I've had an MPE port install

Awesome! So comfort/ sport being the quietest and sport+/ track being the loudest I'm assuming?

So I see it this way - Driver Experience Setting + MPE Setting = sound you get. Unfortunately one MPE setting is Sport which is an overloaded term since the Driver Experience Setting can also be in its own "Sport". So for MPE I will call it MPE Sport ( street mode ).
Below is YMMV but it kind of gives you an idea.
* for the burbles or pops or bangs - this is not scientific proof. This is just from memory and my current feeling as I write this. YMMV depending on the way you drive too! For example where you shift, how hard you let off etc... I drive mainly in sport and toggle the MPE sport/track depending on how I feel. If others are in the car, I may go down to comfort mode and stay on MPE sport to reduce drone or volume. Hope that helps!
