It is quite expensive but I think it is only way to improve exhaust sound while still utilizing factory exhaust flap control for drone-free highway driving.

I’ll be interested to see how that goes. Keep us posted.

Can you code the ASD all the way off like I did on my 2020 G30?

I think my m60i sounds good, and after 1,000 miles, actually seems like it is louder. I did’nt intend to buy a race car, so it’s the perfect balance IMHO. Funny thing is my wife does not like the “loud exhaust,” especially in the garage first thing in the morning. I told her it’s a good thing it’s not hers then!
