AWE resonated Track Exhaust?
Anyone here running the resonated track exhaust? One of the things that held me back on doing the M3 was the exhaust. Is it really that bad after the chainsaw startup? My dad has an M2 and I think that has to be one of the best sounding exhausts I've ever heard, of course it's so loud I've often wondered if it has the MPE fitted by mistake lol!
I don't see many people running AWE and only a few videos on YouTube. I found one video of the regular track exhaust and it sounded gnarly. The resonated sounded more "stock" .....thoughts?

I'm running the non- resonated Track edition. It definitely opens up the exhaust and it's much deeper.
It's also extremely loud. I've gotten used to it now and don't even think about it, but once you first install it, you'll probably think it's insanely loud. It certainly brings more attention to the car lol I think the resonated version is a little tamer, but for some reason, from the videos I've seen, it sounds weird. I would either go non-res track or non-res switchpath

Most people get the switchpath to keep their exhaust quiet enough so they can DD the car and open it up when they want. I just didn't care much for that feature and was gonna keep it open most of the time anyways so I went with the track

I'm running the Resonated track edition AWE exhaust on my F83. it sound extremely loud specially during cold start with my Gintani Downpipes but once it warms up its pretty tamed. i have the gunshot burbles with my tune and i get compliments all the time on how ridiculously mean it sounds. I would highly recommend it resonated as it drones less then the non-resonated. One of my buddies has the non-res and when you drive around specially during take off theirs a bit of drone at low RPM but nothing you cant get use to.

I am also considering the resonated track edition and have the same questions! The price point is what got me first, and I personally thought it sounded great in AWE's youtube video. The non-res track sounds more raw, while I want deep and even tone, with a little more volume. I'm currently running the stock non-ZCP exhaust with valves permanently open all the time. Drone was a concern too, and I understand the resonated version drones less.

The AWE track edition exhaust is a very popular option for us.
If you are keeping stock downpipes, its a good setup thats not too aggressive
