Definitely at the top of my list. Hope soon. If end of year, I guess I know my winter project.

Man, I can't wait for the AA EL midpipe.
This is THE s55 exhaust fix, don't need any other axleback apart from stock.

Can you record from the cabin? I’ve got the original AA mid with Remus Race axleback. Quite loud but not very good sounding. Looking forward to upgrade to the equal length.

Is there any power benefits with the equal lengeth AA midpipe?

I have the regular AA midpipe right now, will it be a direct fit if I decide to get a AA equal length midpipe? Talking about the exhaust cuts I had to make to install the original AA midpipe.

Yes the EL Mid Pipe will be an exact replacement fit to our Single Mid Pipe, so no extra cutting needed.

Let me know when I can stop by and we can throw on the resonators. A lot of people have been asking me for videos and a comparison of resonated vs non-resonated.

I'm one of those weirdos that just want the car to sound better without sounding louder (I think stock Sport Plus is plenty loud). I would be interested in a resonated EL midpipe, while keeping everything else stock.

I’m working on it! Will let you know if I can make it over there next week and get the resonators thrown on and take some videos. I don’t think it’s loud without resonators, but everyone has a different level of tolerance for exhaust volume.

Oh, I like it louder. I need to hear the car in the cabin, with the fake sound turned off, and the windows up. I'll probably swap this into my current AA mid/remus race setup. With burbles coded out, I think it's about as good as I'm going to get.

Definitely. Check the instagram links I posted in-cabin. I coded off the fake sound in my car as well. Stock downpipes and factory muffler.

The AA equal length midpipe sounds great. Hows the drone?

How's the fitment? How are the tolerances?

Many M3/M4 guys seem to be having fitment issues.

Mine in perfect, however they used my car for all the development. I had the single midpipe installed before, so no additional cutting was needed.

Loving every minute with it. Car sounds amazing!
