Yeah, I enjoy the pops when I'm bombing down a back road. I don't enjoy them when I'm taking coworkers or clients to lunch (with the occasional exceptions of other car guys). But even on back roads, the original behavior was a lot more rewarding - it acted more 'natural' - if the cat was super hot, and you get off the gas quickly at high rpm, some excess fuel gets past the engine unburnt and you get a big bang. Now it's like a fucking coffee maker.

I had my valves completely unplugged and 100% open for a few months until I let my girlfriend drive my car one day while I was still at home and could hear how much that deep exhaust tone at cold start was shaking my entire condo (my garage is my first floor with the living room above it) and felt bad for my neighbors. The volume level is not insanely louder than the normal behavior (with valves plugged in and operational) but the exhaust sounds much deeper with a lot of deep bass that is not there when valves close and force the exhaust through the muffler. |

Cold-start is programmed deep into the ECU-software and is not a "code-able" option. Bimmercode cannot do anything with respect to it. Need a custom engine tune to be able to disable it.
