Hi everyone! I recently picked up my M2, and based in Australia.

I’ve been keeping an eye on midpipe options for a while now, but being so far away, the high shipping costs really add up. I’m comparing a few local options with the more popular choices that I have come across here.

I’m hoping to get some advice on what seems to be the ideal route to take. I’ve heard great reviews about Open Throttle, but I’m torn. I don’t want to miss out on a potentially better option over a few hundred dollars, but at the same time, I’d rather not spend the extra money if the difference is minimal.

I’ll be pairing it with a VC and plan to keep the setup mostly stock. Still undecided between res and non-res, but I’m leaning towards non-res. Would love to hear your thoughts!

-- AUS BASED --

Open Throttle - Single Midpipe ($1,850AUD / $1,188 USD)

Iilumo - Single Midpipe ($1,900 AUD / $1,220 USD) seems identical as Open Throttle

-- INTL BASED --

MAD - Single Midpipe ($2,075 AUD / $1,333 USD due to shipping of $495 USD).

AA - Single Midpipe ($3,100 AUD / $1,994 USD due to shipping of $495 USD).

I only have experience with MAD and Active Autowerke. both are solid options

I haven't heard of the top two brands however, i'm happy to see how competitive we are with the locals even with our $450 shipping charge.

I'm guessing you got that quote from our site. If you want me to double check it and run a direct quote with my shipper team pm me your full address.

We also have a Forum code you can use for an additional 5% Code "MAD"
