IRL vs Valvetronic Exhaust Setup
Which one of the two do you guys recommend? The IRL is about $1000 cheaper and supposedly made in the US, and I’ve been watching videos of the two back to back for like an hour now and can’t hear a difference. Does the equal length exhaust not make as big of a difference like it did on the S55 or am I just tripping and need to take a closer listen again?

I can think of seven off hand (not recommending these, just listing)...Fi, Dinan, Milltek, Akrapovic, Remus, Dahler and M Performance (there may be other that I am not aware of). Last edited by M_Power Rob; 12-27-2023 at 12:27 PM.. |

That is cheap for titanium...if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck...you get the gist. Not a fan of titanium sound, either (just my opinion). |

Nice, its an option though. Also I know a while back when i talked to AA they told me they hadn't had a car local for development for their cat back. Might be worth a check if anyone is local to them in FL.

TBF I don't know who you are, they are simply and option I'm sure if you shot them a message or a call they could tell you why they are cheaper than others for ti, no reason to write them off at least they are making parts for g42s. Personally not a fan of the blue'd piping so I wouldn't buy it, personally thought the sound of the valvetronic on the g20 sounded pretty good would debate swapping my mpe to it.

And I dont know who you are if you want to play that game (nor am I postingfor your or anyone else's approval). I provided my comments and opinions just like anyone else is entitled to. If someone lines or benefits from it, great. If you dont like it, that your prerogative. I personally dont jump on something just because its cheap (and even more so when I have bever heard of the company). No offense, again my opinion, but I would not purchase an exhaust made in China (not saying this is but many of the cheaper stuff is). As I have said, for what is available now, Fi is the best product available (no, not cheap and not fir everyone). I have Valvetronic on my G87 and would probably put them equal to Fi once they release theirs (plus the shipping savings on Valvetronic). |
