Most catless downpipe with MPE sounds a bit raspy but yours sound good.

I have had the BM3 stage 2 with downpipe for abt 6 months now. No problems at all, makes driving this pig of an suv a lot more enjoyable.. BM3 customer service is great, very happy with them. BM3 came highly recommended so I didn't even consider racechip TBH.

youre in toronto roughly how much should i expect to pay? can i keep a tune for 91 instead of 93/94? if i dont have MPE can i still get little burbles on the exhaust? not like htose ricy 335is but something a little nicer then stock?

I bought it from Rocco at RMP (outstanding mechanic if you don't know him), he is/was a distributor, don't recall what I paid, but close to the price listed on the website. I bought a 91 and 93 stage 1 tune initially. Then abt 6 months later I put a downpipe on and stage 2 93. I found a bigger improvement going stock to stage 1, but stage 2 is still a blast. I only drive in manual mode now so I can keep it in sport + (the shift points are too aggressive for city driving in auto - for me anyway).

As for burbles, they are adjustable, in a lot of the tunes (stage 2 for sure, don't recall stage 1). I have it on a less aggressive setting and it is still almost too much. I am running stock exhaust, just catless dp. I turned cold start off too.

PM me if you ever want to see / hear it in person..

I strongly suspect that a BM3 tune will happily coexist with both of those OEM mods. But by all means contact BM3 to verify that, rather than assume it to be so.

I have MPPK with ACSchnitzer stack with RCU when the car still in warranty. I switch it to BM3 when the warranty is expired. BM3 will overtake mppk in tune. I save the MPPK as stock when flashing it to BM3 so when I going to sell my car, I will flash it back to MPPK.

I can try and do one, but will be with my iPhone, so quality won't be stellar. It's VRSF.
