Which exhaust are you running and any noticeable difference with the exhaust flaps fully open?

If you’ve got Harman Kardon, enable the Bowers & Wilkins sound profile. I use the “concert” setting with surround set to max, but depending on your preference you might prefer “studio”.

As mentioned above, I have also enabled comfort+ but with Eibach springs i find it a little too bouncy on poor roads. I use the comfort+ steering setting in eco pro though.

I have the dinan intake, AA catted downpipe, and the full cat back miltek exhaust.

The valve controller made the cold start very loud
I could be in my head but I feel like the dahler changed the tone to slightly deeper
There's def a few more burbles and a it's easier to get some pops and bangs in sports plus

It was simple enough to install and I got it from a member here that sold their car before installing.

I need to pop off the exhaust tip to see if it gets the extra movement like the Kies video
It's just to far around the corn to see

Vudumonkey25 thanks for the info.

Does it still stick at the default 80% (or whatever it is) open when you switch to Sport/Sport+ mode, but then you can press the Dahler remote (or mirror button if coded) to tell it to open 100%?

Do you have to do that each time you want 100% open?

So with dhaler closed it performs just like stock. Closed on comfort/eco

Opens like 80% in sport


When you press the unlock on the remote it opens the full 100% regardless of mode you are in. Including cold start. It's just wide open.

This red charge pipe would be a cool addition to your engine bay to go with the theme

Finally got the new wheels and tires on the car after a very long wait. Very happy with how they turned out. The poke past the fender is the only thing I was concerned about with the more aggressive offset but it doesn't bother me at all like I thought it might.

Specs: 19x9.5 ET25 all around with 265/35 DWS06 Plus

Thanks for the info. Makes sense. And I assume you press unlock on the remote (or lock button again?) to set it back to stock behavior?

Any idea if this would make a noticeable audible difference with the stock exhaust?

It should make a little bit of a difference nothing to crazy I would think

Better putting the money towards an exhaust or honestly just the AA DP make a nice improvement on the stock system

Awesome.
You have to remove the whole center piece and pop out the old from the backside?

If I have to take the center off I'll probably add the m1/M2 wheel buttons since they get wired in there too

Yes, you need to remove the entire center console.

Here are some vids, but nothing just comes apart as easily like this guy shows.

Popping the 2 front clips - adjacent to cup holders, of the surround piece of the center console is a major PITA if you don't use the right tools. I've only found one tool that makes this very simple.
https://www.proclipusa.com/products/...pener-standard

Removing the silver trim from the edges of the console needs to be done on a bench, took some work, their is a hidden clip near the camera button on the console, you can't see it, as it is inbetween.

Finally added the trunk euro bracket and triangle. Found the OEM US roadside assistance sticker (01-00-2-365-372) for anyone else equally ocd about that.

Only recommended in the UK but legal requirement in many EU countries, I think it's Spain requires two.

Never had to use myself but every time I've seen someone using here, it's placed far too close to the car to be useful, you see the car before the triangle.
