Dahler exhaust valve controller installed (G87 M2)
As the title says installed the valve controller two nights ago. IMO this is a must have mod. Personally, I don't like the fake engine sound track that comes with having M sound enabled but I do like the louder exhaust note. The Dahler controller allows you to disable the M sound and have the valves open all the time. I'm noticing an increase in throttle response at low RPMs too but maybe I'm just imagining this. Overall impressed and probably the easiest install I've ever done on any car.

Congrats
Opening the valve will not provide any noticeable power improvement

Would love to learn more about this . I was just wondering how to keep the cable open all the time . On my m40 I replaced the rear mufflers and just left the entire valve assembly there but not attached to anything lol.
In my m340 before I installed the Mpe, I just unplugged the wire and zip tied it. Now I’m wondering how I make this m2 keep the valve open all the time. Would love it to be open on start up too and without having to go into a sport mode etc. Thanks

If you get a valve controller, you can force the valves open at 100% And if, for whatever reason, you need to close the valves, you can do so with a click of a button.

Thanks guys. Just found an install video .. certainly not difficult and nice to be able to close them at will. I assume if opened they will stay open even if car is turned off the back on? Is this unit expensive ? I just spent a ton on brake pads lol and need to take it easy otherwise simple fuse pull and call it a day lol

Thx I’ll be ordering something soon. Based on what I see and read there is no harm correct? Ie dealer won’t care if they see this or anything silly like warranty issues with anything ?

I really don't hear the difference from the valves being 70-80% open to fully open. I wish I could hear a car in person. From the videos I can't discern the difference from 70%-100%.

I like the SST solution. They give you 4 options, on off and a couple percentages open which I think you can set. Plus it remembers whatever you last had it set too.
I also have a OG CG precision first gen that did act up on me years ago, but its working flawlessly every since then, 3yrs later.
