I ordered the MAD single from Mike, should be released in the next week.

Active & MAD offer the single midpipe

if you want a louder setup and dont mind a little rasp, get the Valvetronic

I will likely go Resonated single mid-pipe. Stock back box. And 200 or 300 cell downpipes. Should sound excellent.
Let's see how many times I change my mind before my 25 gets here 🙄🤣.

It's wider than stock, and won't restrict airflow.

the single midpipe dyno that active autowerke posted showed power gains from this upgrade

Just curious to know, the single-pipe quickens the turbo spool and increase low-end and mid-range power. Is that noticeable or just placebo?

It's noticeable but keep in mind when on the oem software flash the car will regulate the boost to try and keep hp and tq as close to stock as possible.

Thank you for your message. Unfortunately, the sound from the single mid-pipe is louder than I prefer, especially during heavy acceleration. I was wondering if a resonated mid-pipe would be a better option.

Did you get the single mid pipe on the car and if so how do you like it?

yes if the non-res single is too loud for your taste, you should get the resonated version

Is this your only mod?

Yes, for exhausts other than the SST valve controller.
My mate has the single mide pipe (deletes 2nd cat and 2 res) on his M3. It can be a bit obnoxious sometimes, but he loves it.

then its best to get the resonated single if non-res is too loud for your taste.

Resonated and the option of 50% valve position should be good.

I have Racechip piggyback installed. It should work fine with the free-flow mid pipe, I suppose.

Would you know much the car would be making at the wheels with Race Chip and mid pipe upgrade? I watched some Race chip video they are claiming about 570+ whp & 520+ ft lb. Mine is manual.
