I don't trust anyone who shifts an automatic like that at 0:22.

Benefit of the doubt, it’s for YouTube 😂 gotta be a bit eccentric to keep audience retention!

lmfao these exhaust videos are getting wild. and they all sound the same. its crazy how many vendors come and go offering the same shit and people think its some godly mod to make the s55 sound different.

I cant remember though if he had the titanium version…

Videos never do true justice for sound.

I have the stainless steel paired with stock downpipes. It's true that the sound in a video is not going to sound the same as in real life due to mic hardware/software, positioning, and editing. But I love mine. Sounds deep like a single midpipe in low rpm and sings like an equal length above 5.5k rpm or so.

and tbf, the exhaust setup does make a huge difference to sound. TractionControlDelete's car vs mine sounded way different

Wanted to update this thread with a post from Instagram. I've seen posts from Reggie on Instagram before and liked what he's done with his Equal-Length midpipe. He's done something I've been thinking of for years now, of combining the exhaust into a single pipe after the EQL midpipe, and it comes out sounding very interesting/unique. I've been thinking of doing the same thing, curious though since I have stock downpipes still on my M4.

We do offer our equal-length exhaust as equal length combining into single mid-pipe. It's the best sound experience for the dual turbo S55!
