I installed a Valvetronics titanium midpipe on my G80 yesterday, it’s beautiful. I love that I get to keep the factory box so it keeps the stock look but it RIPS
Really cool to see the relationship you have with your other car buddies. Inspires me to get more involved with other car people to assist eachother with their builds or vice versa.
Great install video and review. It’s too bad you didn’t do a vid with the windows closed though, too much buffeting. Any chance you could post another?
I’ve been impressed with everything I’ve gotten and installed from them so far. Everything lined up so well with this midpipe and made the install very enjoyable.
Sounds good, how do you think they sound compared to F8x? A lot of times on video they sounds the same I know videos aren't always an accurate representation of the sound versus in person
Videos never do exhausts justice. Hard to capture the actual tone, volume, and sound. The s58 does sound way better stock for stock. I think it takes less work to get the s58 to sound good over the s55.
Had some pretty annoying exhaust leaks and fitment issues with this system on my car...Drone on highway with valves open was not great as well. Switching over to a IRL single mid.
@FarhanAli-vv7tc for what it’s worth, no fitment issues at all or leaks on the one in the video. I see and drive the car often and it’s rock solid with no issues. Fitment and any leaks can easily be resolved by making sure the cut is correct and everything is positioned correctly.
Question: so the QuickJacks don’t work for the G80? Is that the specific quickjack model you have or none of them will work? I was about to order some for mine. I’ll be disappointed if they won’t work for the G80
I have the 5000tlx which is the longer extended version of the 5000 series, but is too short for the g80. They have a 6000elx which is for longer wheel bases and should work on the g80 amzn.to/3KvqBSp
Seems like all the g series m cars do it. Apparently the way the OEM pad is seated on the caliper causes it. The only fix right now is aftermarket pads.

I strive to have my car up to spec with the level of detail your cars are🔥

Sounds amazing. ARM got good stuff, I have the downpipes and midpipe on my F80

I’m waiting for the day where it’s revealed that Chris’s friends are actually just Chris’s other cars lol
Dude I just installed this system and it is LOUD. No tune no downpipe no charge pipe. Stock and it’s ridiculously loud
It’s a pretty big change in volume from this alone.
@@Scoobyfreak86 and it’s not too raspy or sound cheap. Even at low rpm it sounds amazing
Any drone and rasp ? Planning on buying it for my 2025 m4
No sir. Just more volume and a deeper tone.

I still think the MAD resonated single mid-pipe is the way to go. Cuts down on a lot of the rasp
Exhaust sounds is all very subjective. I think a lot of the options do sound good on the s58. It just comes down to personal preference.
@@Scoobyfreak86 as a G80 owner, I think the only real way to give it a good tone is swap to a single turbo. A little cost prohibitive though lol
Haaa same goes for the f80 👍🏻

What were the fitment issues?

@@Scoobyfreak86 awesome! Thanks for the info. I’ll try the 6000 series
Everyone says the AA equal length midpipe is the best though?
Noo
Where did you get the M colored logo for the seats?
Factory option with the jahre edition.
How does it sound in person? Thinking of doing the same on my g80
I was very impressed with the sound. For the cost, it’s hard to beat.
Yeh absolutely. Beats buying a 8.5k akropovich setup 🥴
Why don't use the quickjack?
I explained why I couldn’t in the video
@@Scoobyfreak86 I missed it then :D
G82 brakes also squeek like hell

@@Scoobyfreak86 Good to know !
valvetronics isn't better?
Damn the F80 looks miles better than the G
