Installing this upcoming week, so I'll update with all the info and soundclips. The quality looks phenomenal. New valves with programming to your rear view mirror garage link buttons or separate remote as well. Small clip of the details of the setup.

Definitely sounds good, just not convinced it’s a $5k+ good. Lol. Hope you’ll be able to post some more videos soon.

Any issues with the install?

No issues with install. downpipes fit like oem, everything bolted up great. in regards of the cost in comparison to value....thats very opinionated to be honest. would you prefer it to be twice this loud to be of value? i guess it depends what you want to achieve with the sound and how much you want to spend. i am very happy with the outcome and the sound. it doesnt quite sound "aftermarket" or obnoxious. its very throaty and has that deep V8 growl the M60i lacks.

installed parts include
-catless secondary downpipes
-catback exhaust system
-new valves and valve controller with remote
-all required hardware

here is a small clip from my phone. i will get some better videos soon with a proper camera setup to capture the sound properly

dubsesd's user avatardubsesd were those the tips it came with or separate? Any additional labor involved?

Looks legit

tips came with the catback system, and are slip on style, so you have to remove the oem bezel style tips first

They fill up the space very well and still look oem

It does sound better than stock, no doubt. In your view, how did the sound change inside the car after the install?

This sounds mighty. Can you record a clip from inside the cabin?

It sounds 10% louder than iconic sound. I turned it off now. Really hard to capture interior sound accurately

It is hard to tell difference between valve closed and open with dahler exhaust from the video. It might be that dahler's muffer section is lightly packed so it does not reduce the sound that much.

Your right. It gets deeper with valves open. You can hear it better listening on a good sound source. Playing the video on a phone really makes it harder to distinguish. The system overall is not very loud, which I like. It's only slightly louder in the cabin as well. Most importantly, the car sounds like an m60i TT V8.

How would you rate the loudness vs family needs? (Think wife who’s getting annoyed at loud cars and small kids sleeping in the back, and everybody hating any droning noises)

Slightly louder cabin sound. No drone, but you must install the tips for the full execution so it extends to the edge of the bumper past the car. European cars will be quieter since they have 2 extra resonator and opf.
