Is this downpipe less than 1K or are they all going to be around that price range?

Excited to see the video, looks fast as hell. Just so unfortunate about the sound. Engine noise from the front sounds like something is broken and rattling..

I am not a hater, but have a 2006 M3. It has Dinan exhaust though.

Almost E46 like! Though I heard one for the first time earlier tonight. The cold start made me cringe, I could scarcely believe that I was hearing an M car. But under load, S55 isn't bad and looks batshit fast

Swapping DP on the stock exhaust will only magnify the OEM tone, which I think everyone already disapproves of. I'd give a good aftermarket rear section paired with the DP a try before final judgement. |

Man, your car looks great.
However, cannot say that it sounds amazing. It's definitly louder and more piercing but that odd clanking noise that's happening is not good. It'll take sometime to perfect the right noise but this is a step at least. Keep goin! |

Same here ,owned 2 E90 M3s and loved that car and the sound - was concerned after watching vids of the F80s sound but after taking delivery and driving the car I can honestly say I love the sound just as much as my E90- and it's louder!

Ehhh, I'll reserve full judgement until more offerings are available. Having cats and a decent cat-back will fix things a bit.
It sounded like an E46. If I heard it and wasn't able to see it, that is what I would be looking for on the street. |

Although I agree it sounds very raspy, I wouldn't be too concerned. The F8x platform is still under heavy development and I'm sure there will be some company out there with a solution.
Take a ride in one of these S55's w/ a downpipe and I'm sure you'll begin to shift your priorities on performance vs. sound.
