Does anyone have stock DP, AA Resonated EL, and switchpath V2?
Ordered the switchpath but wondering if I should get the AA, if that would do anything with this muffler |

laughing at comments that recommend to keep valves closed up to 4k to cover embrassing sound lol ( while paying 1300-1500$ to fix the sound problem, also while waiting 3-4 months for delivery)

I've had my EL midpipe for over a year and the only "embarrassing" sound is during a cold start, and no cold start ever sounds good. If there are any rattles, it has to be an installation problem for sure.
Definitely less embarrassing than other options that exacerbate the horrible sounding S55 engine.

I thibk before throwing 1500 into this you should try resonated single mid pipes. especially cold start and low rpms are very good |

This is what I was trying to find sound clips on and possibly run. How raspy? I'm on stock dp and muffler with non res EL midpipe. I heard f80ho's arm resonated dp with non res EL on stock muffler and that was just too raspy imo.

Yep, that's why I took it off. I lost a good amount on the dyno jet (top end).

Follow up question for you. Did you notice a bump in power at the low or mid end? |

I noticed nothing but better sound in the higher RPM range and a lot of buzziness/rasp with unfortunate power loss across the entire RPM range. Dyno showed me consistent loss, I removed them after a week. I think they're great for OEM+ or S1 maps and that's about it.

veloriderkm Consider EL as a sound only mod. If you’re running stock power levels then back pressure is not an issue since it’s already being regulated by the turbos. It’s slightly more restrictive when you’re running an aggressive tune or aftermarket turbos where you need a high flow or catless DP.

No one is losing or gaining significant power at stock power levels with just a mid pipe. You’re situation is a bit isolated given you’ve been tuning for a lot of power… that’s just not relevant to the majority of people who just want to change the sound and why it’s important for either you or others to make it clear you are very far from a stock setup. Both from a power and sound perspective.

Stock turbo, aftermarket turbo, stock tune; S1 - S whatever. They are even marketed as such. The verbiage they chose is very specific, they're not going to advertise they're cutting top end power but it actually does. Show me a dyno that says otherwise. Stock power band for these turbos is in the high rpm range, these pipes squeeze the lungs a bit in that realm. Period. I didn't not waste my time dynoing I'm not here with an abundance of free time but I'm here with experience on a F80/F82 with different setups and tunes and I can guarantee that the only benefit for these things is a short window or eargasmic bliss in a small upper rpm window. That's it. Firmest sucks, you lose power, they're overpriced. Oh and when you're not signing in that pretty high rpm note it just sounds like a civic SI. I really, really wished they were worth it, but they're just a hype buy I waited way too long for. Again s1 or oem plus owner might like it for aesthetic reasons with minimal notice of any power loss on the butt dyno.

I’m not here to argue with you and you self admittedly have no dynos to back up your assertions. I actually think your feedback is relevant to some people, just not to the average buyer that just wants their car to not sound like a lawn mower.
