@@rickybobby3043 thank you! and no issues. just get a cheap replica diffuser from a place like Horizon to fill it out.

How’s that scraping over bumps now? Mine just started doing this as the coilovers settled. My secondary cats scrape on bumps. I hope it doesn’t get worse when I install my VD exhaust.

absolutely need alignment after. good spacers mounted correctly won''t cause an issue - look for hubcentric ones. BMW race team uses fat spacers on their cars

thank you, and no it was out of my budget

sweet! I'm thinking of downpipes. and you are correct, i got a larger diffuser and i think it fits much better

Me too, just put my order in yesterday

had no idea, that's tough

nice! glad you like it. luckily the valve rattle is an easy fix. i have an aftermarket diffuser on now and it fits perfectly, but granted i have different, thinner tips. Not sure about the humming sound tbh. perhaps it will go away when you get that valve fixed!

I just run their recommended settings for street, and then two clicks from full for both compression and rebound on the track

Thank you so much! That means a lot

thank you! lol trust me i was definitely scared to do it. first did mdm mode then full traction off. i never pushed it too hard and was trying to get a feel for breaking traction, but never pushed it hard enough to do even do that. so much more for me to learn!

thanks! and definitely need to take advantage of my membership and do that. very humbling

you won’t regret it!

I think so too!

Appreciate the comment, thank you!

Thank you! It's a Purple Panda lavalier mic from Amazon secured on the outside of the trunk with its fuzzy windscreen on. plugged directly into the gopro

yeah i used hagerty. you can buy 1 day and you set the value of your car with mods. there are better priced options if you go many times a year though

Haha thanks! Sonoma's walls definitely made me more nervous than if I was going to T Hill

Thank you! Appreciate it

Thank you so much! You gotta do it man, you don't have to go crazy. All things considered I drove pretty safe and paid up for the insurance just in case. Also fyi, I filmed this video months ago haha, the exhaust video is more recent. In that video, i connected the lav mic to a better recorder than the gopro (a zoom recorder) and got better sound with less clipping. let me know if you want more info

@@f82regpaqyeah absolutely on my to do list. Took my kid to skip barber racing school last summer for the 3 day course and really regretted not taking the class with him. Got to hang in the classroom though and at various flag stations at Lime Rock which was awesome. Also, will def take you up on the audio info! I have a tascam recorder (similar to the zoom ones) but I haven’t played with it enough yet to dial in a good exhaust sound from outside. The one time I tried the gain was too high plus bad mic placement and the audio was unusable. Haven’t tried from the trunk yet.

@@AlwaysSummerGarage Maybe I'll make a video on the set up I used. Gain control is the most important thing with our loud cars. The GoPro doesn't have a low enough gain control than the Zoom recorder, which is when I got better audio with no clipping. But even on the zoom, i had to have it set to the lowest gain possible

@@f82regpaq makes sense.. I'm positive I didn't have mine nearly low enough and didn't dig around in other settings (yet). But yeah a video on that would probably be pretty cool.. I know I'd watch it 👍

awesome! g82 must be insane

thank you man! coilovers are definitely better than springs. if i could do it again, i’d buy new and probably a different brand or model, perhaps bilstein, that has a system developed with more focus for our chassis and linear spring in the front. if you don’t get one that comes with top hats/camber plates, i’d do camber plates at the same time. it’s a harder install when reusing stock top hats

@@f82regpaq yep, I'm thinking the b16's to keep edc for the misses lol. Can't wait to lose that front wheel gap.

i see what you’re saying but that’s how even the stock exhausts work on s55 cars

@@f82regpaqye at least stock both side get smoke. In the winter it just looks like the other side of 2 outlets are fake. Dont like that idea.

i think this exhaust was really made to be paired with a more aggressive diffuser, which are usually beefier and stick out more. i bought the V style from horizon on black friday and the spacing around it is perfect now

thank you so much! sorry i’m so lazy or there’d be more

thanks so much! it really means a lot!! 😁

sorry i missed your comment. but the left side is completely adjustable to match the right, very easy to diy with just a ratchet

@@f82regpaq are you talking about the muffler or tips? My muffler doesn't hang parallel to the car.

@@jonb2437 oh yeah i was talking about the tips. your muffler isn't even? hmm yeah idk how i'd fix that. I never noticed if mine does or not. almost would rather not look any closer lol

nice! all burble settings are completely customizable if you get a tuning software, like bootmod3 (BM3) which is what I have. you don’t have to use it to go stage 1 or 2, you can use it just to customize some neat things like burbles and leave everything else stock. up to you, and i highly recommend it, even on bone stock cars. For me, I have all burbles off, which also means definitely no gunshots

nice! Post some sound clips

Thank you so much!

Thank you! And I didn't know that - that applies to the side mirrors, too? Oh well, I love the broadway mirror too much lol

That certainly sounds interesting - there are so many variations to achieving "perfect" sound with s55 that it isn't feasible, for most people, to try them all. Plus, hearing them in video isn't going to be 100% accurate to how it sounds irl. With that, I'm not sure if the set up I have is "perfect" (I haven't even messed with downpipes), but I love it very much and I'm not considering moving away from it at all. To be transparent with you however, I haven't heard too many different s55 exhaust set ups, so take that into consideration into my review of its sound. Achieving the perfect sound might be a never ending journey.

Always been a fan the of the black roundels! 50th look great on some applications but just not my style. appreciate the love man!!

harbor freight! tool box is US General, most hand tools are Icon including the torque wrench. The power tools are all milwaukee, which can be bought from home depot, ace hardware, or online

Appreciate the comment! Your titanium exhaust is beautiful

nvm maybe u did i think i see them barley moving

@@yearight6294 haha yep, i'm definitely using them :D

Love to hear that!

I mean getting a F82 M4 haha. I was hesitating among E Coupe, 540i and M4 F82. @@f82regpaq

congrats! it’s not needed, you can swap the passenger side valve controller from the stock exhaust to it and it will work just like stock. i didn’t even use the valvetronic valve controller

haha thank you! and i used a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive and pulled it off. then used goo-gone to get rid of the remaining adhesive. not too bad!

Yo! Really appreciate it. I enjoyed trying something new even though it's not doing as well as my other vids :P

there's some adjustment there, but it's designed to poke out a bit. it wouldn't look as out of place if i had a more aggressive diffuser 👍
