Changing your exhaust components can radically alter the sound of your car, for better or worse depending on the parts and installation. The most subjective part is sound, what do they actually sound like after install?
That is the hardest part to judge really, as when you buy a midpipe especially, you dont know what it will sound like on your car.
I wanted to create a comprehensive review of some of the most common options for the BMW M2 Competition, in this case using components from ‪@TheActiveAutowerke‬ .
They make excellent products, and I hope you enjoy the full review.
Component combinations:
1. Full stock OEM - downpipes, midpipe and exhaust
2. Stock downpipes, Active single channel midpipe with and without resonated AB pipes, and stock exhaust.
3. Active downpipes, Active single channel midpipe with and without resonated AB pipes, and stock exhaust.
4. Active downpipes, Active EL midpipe with resonated AB pipes, and stock exhaust.

Appreciate the immense levels of effort fitting all this hardware and doing a ton of separate videos! Just gone with cat-less downpipes and resonated mid pipes.

We really appreciate the amount of time and work into making this comparison video 🙏 Something that would help if we knew though, did you code the stock burbles out completely? In this video I did not hear one burble on your car.

@BMWDIYGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you and I know everyone always asks.. what does it sound like? Lol. On burbles, I have them set custom through Bootmid3. Both amount and duration is set lower with my custom tune as they were too loud and too agressive on the higher settings for me. I definitely still have them, as pedal lift especially with flap open, is very noticeable

I know the S55 suppose to sound bad but to me the car sounds fine in all 3 setups. I do like the equal length the best though and it seems a louder than stock which is a plus. Not crazy obnoxious loud though. I also think this is the way to go, backboxes for the M2C are way too expensive and don't give you much back but clean up the back (I don't really mind the cow udder though)

My order for the Active Autowerke valved exhaust just shipped! I will have an updated sound comparison to demo your very question once it's installed.

You’re right Backboxes is expensive. Me and my friend has the same setup El aa midpipe resonated expect he got akra back box And to be honest it’s not that deferent In my country the akra cost 6k

The internet sort of randomly decided that the S55 sounds bad, and now for some reason it's taboo to like the sound of it I'm right there with you that it sounds pretty decent in all the setups!

Thank you for putting this together for us! Awesome work. Are those the catless AA DPs? Hate to ask but any chance we could get higher rpm revs/flybys? mainly interested in catless DPs + resonated EL midpipes.

thanks for all the work. Can i ask you which of the setups was your personal favorite?

Man hard to say really as both were really good.. the EL is really good and on now, so likely will stay with that.

Great video! 🤗 I am considering this upgrade to my new M2C🤓 What are the specs on the Active Downpipes - cattet OR catless - how many cells ? When doing the in gear accelerations, how many rpm was that up to? Cheers from Denmark 🇩🇰

@BMWDIYGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you and happy to help! I am running catless though AA has a new high flow DP option! I don't believe got over 5k rpm but will see if I can figure that out

I am looking to run the same setup for my M2 competition currently equipped with catless downpipe and else is stock Would you say adding non resonated single midpipe would be obnoxiously loud? P.S. This is not my daily

I believe you will be fine, and was a fantastic setup! 8)
