I'd go with a more reputable company like Active Autowerkes who has a equal length midpipe and X-pipe system. They are the ones who came up with the equal length design for the S55 and made it sound good and same with the S58. Pair that with a ZERO burble tune and active sound delete, you have yourself a really good sounding modern turbocharged BMW
@@UnicornpirateAA actually wasn’t the ones who came up with the EL design. A couple guys on the forums did all the leg work and AA was stalking that thread then released their version later.
@@G82Watts already heard that new one from AA and it sounds bad compared the equal length system from RES. (and this comes from a Active Autowerke- fan)
I actually think both sound great for an S58. I would love to get mine to sound like that but I leased mine and with only 14 months left or so, I'm going to wait for the next one
Fi experimented putting the x pipe with the single mid, and it didn't produce good results. They also tried the setup with and without the resonator and didn't see much of a difference. Plus without the resonator, you can get louder sound especially for those that don't want to touch the stock DPs.
Can I please confirm your thoughts on X-pipe vs Single below 4K RPM - you think single is quieter with valves closed with generally less rasp across all modes/valve settings? Also, are the burbles the same on both or are they louder/more obvious on one setup over the other?
Nah man, still wack. Only way to make I6 sound better is doing single turbo with equal lenght exhaust manifold merging into single downpipe. With stock turbos equal midpipes are closest to it but still far behind. As far as i didn’t mix it up: S55 and S58 sound is bad because of 2 turbos and unequal length both exhaust manifolds and downpipes. You have turbo, exhaust manifold and downpipe for each 3 cylinders. Two downpipes are connected to one midpipe and so on. Because of this, these engines sounds like two separate I3 engines working next to each other (listen to GR Yaris revs, does it remind you of somethig?). If you would have equal length downpipes which is hard to fit you would have 50% of what it should sound like. On the other hand N54, N55, B58 sound is bad only because of unequal lenght exhaust manifold since they are single turbo.
It’s sounds so bad because it’s undersquare. All of BMWs turbo inline 6s sound bad because they are all undersquare. You need higher rpm’s to make an inline sound good.
FI Exhaust is located in Taipei City Taiwan which is now part of China...... so for all intents and purposes, it is a Chineses product.... albeit a very quality Chinese bit of kit....
What setup do you guys like better? The dual mid or the single mid?
Equal length dual mid from the brand "RES" sounds better than this single midpipe set up.
Single sounds so much better ... much deeper sound ❤
Single
@@VehicleVirals single sounds deeper and cleaner..
@@VehicleVirals single Tigere
Great comparison. I think you’re the first to compare single vs dual midpipes on the G87.
Personally I prefer the single.
I want a G8x so bad😭😭😭
RES (the brand) equal length system is still the best sounding. Almost no one knows it ! ☹️Its an equal length system (dual) with an X pipe.

I have it on my car, and it's pretty good actually. But you still get a little bit raspy with the dp.
AA just came out with a v2 new equal length setup and it's the best by far.
@@G82Watts already heard that new one from AA and it sounds bad compared the equal length system from RES. (and this comes from a Active Autowerke- fan)
Dude it sounds amazing and Hella deeper plus it kinda sounds like a n54 straight piped
Still has that goofy rasp up top. Better but far from good IMO. Good comparison though 👍
Did you still have the high-flo downpipes for the midpipe testing?
Yeah
Thank you for always supporting the brand! 🙌🏼 Great comparison.
I love the single pipe gives it a deeper wot! Good choice brotha!🎉
My G80 runs AA catted dps, AA single resonated mid, stock muffler. I do have a valve controller set at 25% open. I love the sound.
Stock DP’s with a single mid pipe and stock valves 100% open will sound the best on S58. Love the single midpipe!
Best fix ive found so far is the valvetronic titanium midpipe. It makes up for the unequal length side, then goes into a single.
Apex Resonated catless Downpipes with an equal length mid pipe is the best setup for an even N55 style tone with no rasp
I like the single midpipe better. Sounds smoother.
bro looking ripped💪🏻💪🏻 4:52
Even just a resonator delete on this car isn’t bad. Surprisingly throaty and deep compared to S55 resonator deletes.
Wooow, what a nice Bimmer. Goals for sure, I'm happy with mine and thankful just to have one but man, it's addictive
Great video I’m now sold on single
Love that exhaust Tigere. Amazing papo..
I actually think both sound great for an S58. I would love to get mine to sound like that but I leased mine and with only 14 months left or so, I'm going to wait for the next one
Dang bro, I remember when your channel got only a few thousand subs
Sounds like an M50 M52.
I really don't mind the B58/S58 exhaust note.
They both sound great.
Love the m2 content
Team Fi ftw! Single definitely sounds smoother than before but as you said always that top end rasp lol
💯
The cost of some welds and pipe is insane these days.
The valvetronic system is the best imo
I went single from IRL and with stock exhaust it sounds amazing
Cool and nice the e90 is opened video soon
Sent in the submission... Least clapped of the 3 5 Series...
Hurricane headed your way, so you and the family be safe Tigere.
Single sounds cleaner to me. its subtle but the dual is more rowdy
The constant off throttle burples on these engines sounds so bad ...
The new v2 AA equal length midpipe is the best.
Sounds great now
Bro if ever get a chance to come there I gotta ride in the M2
Def sounds a little better with the deeper sound imo
Schweeeeeeet either way though
which downpipes are these exactly ?
Fi catted 200 cell
what are thoswe welds under the G bro... example the exhaust is perfect, but that reinforcement plate under the engine looks awful and its oem.
I wonder how the x pipe on the back portion of this single mid pipe will sound better it will make it smoother
This, plus a resonator.
Fi experimented putting the x pipe with the single mid, and it didn't produce good results. They also tried the setup with and without the resonator and didn't see much of a difference. Plus without the resonator, you can get louder sound especially for those that don't want to touch the stock DPs.
Seems like H pipe is the move. I believe that’s how the miltek system is.
Can I please confirm your thoughts on X-pipe vs Single below 4K RPM - you think single is quieter with valves closed with generally less rasp across all modes/valve settings? Also, are the burbles the same on both or are they louder/more obvious on one setup over the other?
Don’t make car louder just make turbo louder! ❤
I liked it before and I also like it now 🤩
Who needs a resinators when you got this
Manuel Gateway
Ngl it sounds like my n55 with down pipe and stock exhaust
Is he using the stock muffler ?
No
I honeslty like the single way more
Sounds much better 👍🇬🇧👍🇬🇧
Mierda Tigere sounds better mi Hermano. Amazing. Deeper sound open that bad boy up, lol the verbals shots fired lol. Sounds great.
The pops (burbles) sound better on the dual. However, the car sound better on the single pipe.
Nah M2 got the best body hands down out of all bmw’s
Single turbo is the way if you want a good sounding turbo bmw i6
i need a video on the 2007 650i bmw please all mods and tunes 6 series owners are waiting for it
It’s bout the same but I’ll rather have the single for sure 👌🏾
Still needs a single turbo kit
Dual pipe more good sound 👌
Def sounds better
the x pipe was the problem trust
Whats nice about these single midpipe setups on the S55 and S58 to me, is that it sounds more like the S54 😅 is that just me????
Unrelated but should I get a 370z or a 335i?
I FOUND THE BEST GRILL FOR THE M2 ITS THE ADRO FRONT GRILL, YOU GUYS ARE WELCOME

Unrelated to the car... I really liked the magician smoke show in and out!

It's better, but it still needs a single turbo
2:30 were u tryna hit at valvetronic?

You can tell a difference at lower rpm but your flybys sound “almost” the same. Barely different. Overall I like the single better

Right. As powerful as the s58 is, I cant stand how bad they sound.
This is the comment I was looking for. Right on brother
still "wack".. says the npc driving a toyota corolla.
Single turbo is amazing but u really just need intakes for that "whooshh" sound
It’s sounds so bad because it’s undersquare. All of BMWs turbo inline 6s sound bad because they are all undersquare. You need higher rpm’s to make an inline sound good.
Where is the E30?
Dual mid fash
And like most things in life “it’s better to be single” 😜😂
Probably it would sound even better when the last part of the exhaust was also completely single pipe…
Zander Light
Sounds good but not as good as the car looks... Still hearing that rasp albeit deeper sounding...
Bernier Hills
Already sent it😂😂
Dual mid , si bueno , single mid , no bueno
Sounds more like b58 now. Needs a resonater
Don't think that's a bad thing.
No it's not bad I have an f22 m240
Do you accept Mini's for your subscriber build "chat"? If so, I'll send my F54 in.
Tod Underpass
Single sounds better imo
can you say big beefy midpipe one more time?
Sure
it sounds better from the front but thats a BMW thing except their V8's
Single pipe ftw
This would be sick

Single sounds way better!!!
Single sounds better
I like more first setup
Bye, Bye warranty !
did you just do the Trump "China" haha that was epic bro. Great video I just ordered a 25 G80 M3
Appreciate you watching. Congrats on the M3. If you ever need anything, feel free to reach out.
IDK, doesn't sound that different to me but I'm listening to it online sooooo...
Yeah, in person the difference is much bigger. Unfortunately the camera mic cuts out a good chunk of the frequencies.

Single sound better
