This is the setup that will bring the S55 as close as possible as sounding like the N55.
It’s because the AA Signature Exhaust has the single Midpipe continue all the way to the muffler as a 3.5” tube rather than splitting again into two tubes to connect with stock muffler. |

I test drove one the past week and what a brilliant car. Enjoy what it offers and you will enjoy the exhaust. After all this time I heard and drove one in person and realized all the cry babies are wrong. As usual...

You know that engine noise is fed into the cabin, but its not what the exhaust sound like outside |

My response to that would be: given nearly 50% of the M2c section of this board revolves around "but it sounds like shit" and "ASD be gone!", I don't know how, practically, one could avoid the info that there's sound piped in the cabin! I still don't mind at all how it sounds, from inside, or outside when someone else is driving it. FWIW, there's a LBB M2 just around the corner from me (which always looks totally ass-kicking AWESOME BTW!), and there's no magic coming from the exhaust on that either. It sounds decent for a turbo car. No more, no less. Again, not trying to start this war for the 500th time, but everyone has their thing |

I was in a carpark standing by my car when a lad in an original M2 came past revving the nuts off his car.
It obviously had a different exhaust and possibly down pipes etc, and the noise, to me, was incredibly chavvy. Whilst I want my M2c to sound a bit better than stock, there’s no way I could stomach the noises these older cars emit. I had an F Type V8 and even the noise of that grated on me after 6 months... So in essence, a little more ‘burble’ would be nice, but you can keep the deafening gunshot backfires! |

^ Or should I get the Akrapovic if I want my car to vibrate?
I want to make sure I'm not upset with it almost sounding as quiet as stock. I got my car a week ago and I'm disappointed in the sound not making me feel like it's a True scary Sports Car |

Do yourself a favor and pick up the AA midpipe and whatever axelback exhaust you want. The AA midpipe alone changes the exhaust note hands down

I think downpipe will make it louder
Anybody know if putting MPE or other exhaust with controllable flap is controlled from bluetooth device like on m2, or from button on the dash/console etc on a s55 car?? |

pretty sure they just use the stock valves which don't have their own operation and are simply closed in efficient engine mode and open in sport and sport +
