IPE vs Armytrix

Guys!

Need your thoughts. My m4 gets here in November. I'm trying to organise an exhaust prior to delivery.

Just wondering if anyone has heard both or either of these exhausts and can let me know their thoughts!

Thanks in advance :$

Heard all 3

Were you planning on doing downpipes?

Note: IPE offers a resonated and non resonated system

Im running stock exhaust so no personal bias or affiliation, but have you heard the awe? I'm ok with catless dp's and stock exhaust. But if your not planning on running dp's the resonated awe sounds pure sex to me

If you want loud, these are the two to choose from. Might as well throw Meistershaft in the mix also.

Depends on the sound you're looking for.

Without downpipes, I would have to say it's a tie between Armytrix and the iPE EVO line *Non-Resonated*. Both systems offer a very deep and throaty rasp. Can't go wrong with either to be honest

They are made in the same location, with very similar designs.

I heard they were similar, I like the iPhone integrAtion of armytrix but will probably never use it and the Ipe is cheaper for me. Plus I can get carbon tips which will match my vorsteiner diffuser!!

I think I'll go Ipe. Thanks guys!

I'm still waiting on my CF tips to come in. You'll like what you hear when you get it.

It's sick. Valves open on cold start is crazy loud.
