SOUL | Valvetronic Exhaust

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com


Hey Bimmerpost! We set out to offer a full valved catback exhaust system with a wealth of options for the M3 / M4 that would offer great power gains with valves open, a stealth mode with valves closed, and a premium experience without the premium price – we don’t believe in the “M tax”. We’re late to the party, but we want to be here, take care of you, and show off your cars on our site and on social.

ABOUT US: Soul was formed in 2017 by a team of auto enthusiasts with automotive industry experience looking to do the right thing by our customers. Customer service comes first for us, we believe in ethics, honesty, and that the total satisfaction of everyone we deal with should be a primary concern. We aim to offer outstanding parts with fair pricing and quality service backed up with the best warranty in the industry.

We are located in a 15,000 sq ft facility north of Philadelphia in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. We make great use of this space to keep our products in stock, ready to ship. Our mission is to quickly get you the parts you need with no delays. Our R&D area is equipped with two BendPak lifts and all tools necessary to allow us to design, engineer, test, prototype, and fixture components. Our shipping area is setup to ensure that all components get a thorough inspection, orders ship complete with all hardware, and that products are well packed. We strategically deal with vendors worldwide to find appropriate components, such as high quality HJS HD catalytic converters. Our mission is to provide the best possible results for our customers at great pricing. Being partnered with ISO 9001 Certified aerospace manufacturers enables us to work with technology and industrial scale, extreme precision equipment down to +/- 0.002 inches that would otherwise be out of the limits of an exhaust manufacturer. Our capabilities include waterjet and laser cutting, tube bending, CNC machining, and much more. Lean manufacturing and processes enables us to offer strategic pricing.


CONSTRUCTION: Each system is made from mandrel bent 2.75” diameter, .060″ wall T304L stainless steel tubing and incorporates a high quality muffler made with fortified casings in the interest of durability – built to withstand the abuse of 600+ ft-lbs of torque. We use high quality Mikalor Supra Heavy-Duty T-bolt clamps to hold the exhaust tips securely onto the system. Our system weighs 9.5 lbs / 4.3 kg less than factory exhaust components (68.95 lbs vs 59.45 lbs).


SOUND: Choose between Resonated and Non-Resonated exhausts. We recognize that a large amount of owners upgrade to catless downpipes, which can add harshness and raspiness to any exhaust setup. As a result we offer optional resonators which can help with minimizing some of the metallic bite and bark when aftermarket downpipes are used. Each combination has a unique tone:

Stock Downpipes + Non-Resonated Exhaust: Get a more aggressive tone than M-Performance at a better value.


Stock Downpipes + Resonated Exhaust: Adding resonators with stock downpipes transmits more tone into the cabin (a very slight perceivable rumble that you can feel – which we enjoy) while quieting down the exhaust from the outside slightly. Valves closed will sound like factory – full on stealth mode.


Aftermarket Downpipes + Non-Resonated Exhaust: If you want an all out, aggressive note (especially with burble tunes) the full song of the S55 is unleashed. For when you like the raw sound of straight pipes, but still want to be able to drive through your neighborhood at night.


Aftermarket Downpipes + Resonated Exhaust: Resonators take some of the harshness / rasp out of the exhaust note and smooth the transition between valves closed and open. Maximum power with as reserved a sound as possible for a street car.




TIPS: We offer 3.5” Carbon Fiber dual wall, 3.5” and 4” Slash Cut and Straight Cut Single Wall variants. The outer tips have a 1/2″ of adjustment for tip depth whereas the inside tips can be setup staggered like the OEM exhaust or flush for a unique look. Default tip sizing is designed for the OEM / OEM style diffusers. For extended aftermarket pieces such as the Vorsteiner carbon fiber diffuser, we offer 1″ longer tips.


POWER: With valves open, exhaust is free to exit straight through an x-pipe to smooth the tone and 2.75″ piping for maximum power. RK-Tunes reports that our development M4 made over 10whp more than similar cars with identical mods prior to a tune – the highest horsepower untuned car they’ve ever baselined.


VALVE FUNCTIONALITY: Just like OEM and the factory actuators are reused.


BOLT ON AND GO: Each exhaust is tested in a fixture to ensure perfect fitment. Installation instructions are included in the box for a straightforward install.


LIFETIME WARRANTY: Enjoy your Soul exhaust with confidence on both the street and track as it’s covered by our Lifetime Warranty! Our team will quickly work with you to answer any questions or resolve any issues that you may have.

Thanks, Jimmy! We have one waiting with your name on it!

Seriously though, we'll engrave anyone's username or whatever you'd like on the midpipe bracket.

Nick is running our non-resonated system with aftermarket downpipes. In the video above his car is the matte grey wrapped car (without burble tune).

It is not, the exhaust path is changed over factory and it's designed to work as a catback.

Nice looking systems.

Buddy of mine stopped by your place, said you guys were super nice, but said he didn't really see any manufacturing equipment there, no tube benders or big saws, said it was kind of quiet.

Where are these systems made? In the US?

Sounds like a lawnmower, not your fault I guess it's just this 6 cylinder. I can't trick my brain into thinking this actually sounds good

Indeed, the exhaust system itself looks awesome and its very cool how you can select between a wide variety of tip designs, but there are very few if any exhaust systems for the F8x that actually improve the sound of the engine note. There's got to be some way to do it, someone should take a que from Aston Martin and look into ways to improving the F8x sound to be uniquely different from stock, the way that Aston Martin took the Mercedes 4.0L TT V8 engine and tuned it to be more high pitched and more Aston like for the V8 DB11. I realize it will take more than just an exhaust system to change the sound of the S55 exhaust note, but someones got to try.
