Cold start is a bit obnoxious and funnily enough it gets louder when you put the car into park at the end of a drive... Quote:
The fun part was getting the far right tip to fit because that's where the battery box is and there is NO space. Ever noticed how the M3/M4 quads are closer in towards the centre of the car? Now I know why... |

Have only heard it the once - this morning - but they never had a problem with the stupid loud exhaust on my 1M so should be fine... Guy who live next door to me actually told me that he looked forward to hearing it because he wishes he had one... |

I love your car!
Looks absolutely perfect! Where did you buy your front spoiler? How was the fitment? How did you attach it? |

Depending on where in the world you are you might be better off getting it elsewhere. Bimmian appear to sell it for $295 USD: https://www.bimmian.com/Front-Lip-Sp...r-F82-4-Series It's actually 4 pieces. The bottom blade is a clamshell with a top half and a bottom half. Then there are the 2 parts that come up over the bumper. All of it fits together perfectly. Fitment on it was absolutely perfect. Everything lined up exactly. Uses the factory mounting holes plus 2 extra holes in the middle of the underside of the bumper and 3M tape inside the 2 parts that come up over the front bar. It ain't coming off. |

Very nice sound, lots of burbles & cracks. It's not crazy loud, it's just right Sounds similar to the M Performance exhaust except with more cracks, I wish mine sounded like this. How does it compare to the 1M's exhaust note? Is it close or it's still a bit away from that sound.

i like the crackles and pops. can you do a sound clip with you cruising at 60/80/100. Want to know if there is droning.
did you notice any power differences, gains from top end? turbo lag from stationary start? |

Don't know about power gains as the car only has 1500kms on it so 1) I'm not really hammering it, and 2) Don't have a lot to compare it to. Definitely notice the induction noise and DV letting off - other people have also commented on this - so I assume that it's breathing/flowing a bit easier... |

You're right it sounds raspier a lot more grunt compared to the 428i but has less burbles & crackles. Both sound great in my opinion

Love the exhaust!
Very tempted to visit Rob for those quads! How long did he need your car for and will I need a new diffuser or can he cut my existing m performance diffuser to make room for the quads? |
