Not really to be honest and there are various reasons. Akrapovic has the best build quality IMO and the catback version saves about 33lbs if I remember right (Mine only drops ~20lbs). The main reason I didn't/couldn't even consider it was the cost. $7K for a catback is pretty steep for me. I'm also not a huge fan of the soundtrack of Akra. It's definitely better than M3/M4 version but still not what I was looking for. I probably could live with how it sounds if it was priced the same as my current setup but price difference was crazy.

After looking closer at some pictures of these Remus setups, it appears the valve location is further towards the rear of the car and the wires connected to the valve actuators are stretched a bit with some looking stretched the to point of being stressed. I'm concerned about exhaust movement while in motion and under forces causing issues with the wiring. Can anyone with first-hand experience comment on this?

it depends on the person, i dont feel the race is too loud with stock downpipes. You might disagree. If you are not too sure, get the sport as its the safer option and you can always add catted downpipes in the future for a louder sound.

no need to worry about the warranty since REMUS would cover any warranty issue with their system if needed

im coming from a catless akra system on my OG. I am now in an M2CS Trying to decide between the Race and Sport. I like the sound of the Sport but im used to a very loud system. Can anyone comment on which would be closer to my Catless akra system? both will be paired with the EL pipe. If i go sport it will be un resonated and Race maybe resonated. Keeping stock DP

Setup sounds amazing.
If I go with the Remus Sport + AA midpipe, will it throw any CEL's?
