cold start with valves open and catless DPs is pretty crazy. Sounds amazing don't get me wrong but makes you kind of feel a little embarrassed to tell you the truth. Ill stick with my routine with valves closed and driving right away, super silent

So do you lose the option to scroll through the displayed functions of the onboard computer by doing this? I'm thinking that the control takes over the usage of that particular button. To change the viewed settings you'd have to remove the unit?

Button is not impacted, just have to hold it a touch longer and that activates the action
You don't lose any OeM functions

Well that's amazing. I'd do it for stock cold start elimination alone lol it bothers me that much.

This does not eliminate cold start, but users (such as GOLFFRR) have reported quieter startups on cold mornings.

I gotcha. It's not eliminated totally as in the revs are still high, but the actual over the top loudness seems to be significantly reduced with the closing of the valves. That is enough for me!

but if you close the valves and let the car idle at cold start (which is not recommended by BMW) then your car will still have the cold start but it will be a lot quieter then if you just let the process happen. ill try to video it somehow this weekend to show OEM cold start vs valve closed cold start

I ordered this device from EAS last night. I have stock exhaust (for now), but with the valves permanently open. I really like the sound at all RPMs once the car warms up...so much better than the stock "auto" mode. But I cringe when I start the car at home in the morning--and especially in the parking garage at my office. I was just about to reconnect the valve controls before this little gizmo was announced. Can't wait for it to show up in the mail!
