One of the most common complaints about the BMW S55 motor is the sound. It's said to be raspy.. its said to sound like a weed eater! One of the BEST ways to change and improve that sound is with the ‪@TheActiveAutowerke‬ performance midpipe!
Doing sound comparisons isn't easy as there are dozens of variables involved including the camera gear, car tune, and more. I did my best to keep the variables as limited as possible, and all recordings done in the same way with the same gear.
Hopefully this will give you a good side by side comparison, between complete stock, and the Active performance midpipe both with and without the resonated AB pipes.
I find the midpipe adds a deeper note, a little bit of volume and overall improves the sound of the car. I also found I prefer WITH the resonated AB pipes rather than without.
Required parts and tools:

Amazing video, extremely grateful and impressed by the attention to detail in trying to cut out as many confounding factors as possible. Looking forward to the EL video, got a new subscriber in me.

Great video, thank you. Have you coded out the pops and burbles? Would’ve expected to hear a bit of that with the valves open. Why did you end up preferring the resonated AB pipes? Similar volume, but better tone maybe?

Absolutely yes on resonated. Burbles are controlled through my BM3 tune, and I have them turned down pretty significantly. They are still there and are even louder (at previous settings with oem pipes) with the new pipes. I have mellowed them a bit, and are present mostly on aggressive downshifting

The resonator vs non isn’t an option when purchasing right? It’s simply reusing the stock resonators?

No, you buy the AB pipes from Active and choose resonated or not.

Great info video! So question - my exhaust shop recommended just cutting the secondary cats out and replacing with stainless pipe, leaving OEM resonator in place. What’s your thoughts on this set up? Car is 100% stock
@BMWDIYGuy
@BMWDIYGuy 2 жыл бұрын
Interesting.. instead of doing a midpipe like this? Keep in mind you lose all of the secondary cats when the OEM comes out, so shouldnt be an issue. Also this isnt hard to do and would save you shop time if you did it yourself.

Hmmm most S55s sound the same. I would have gone for the equal length system which actually improves the tone.

Thanks for the comprehensive video. Might I suggest adding a part where you play each section back to back? Like cold start 1, 2, 3 then revs 1, 2, 3, etc. It makes it easier to compare the sounds back to back because by the time you’ve gone through the sounds of one whole system it’s hard to remember what the previous one sounds like without having to jump back and forth in the video.

ENTRENCE - no. ENTRANCE - yes. Just sayin'. Otherwise good comparison, maybe better than most.
