I've been eyeing this for some time, but for the quantity of CF it sure is expensive.

I bought the CF steering wheel trim from them and am very happy with it. I just don't get how they are nearly the same price.

ER midpipe is in. This thing is LOUD. Not a fan of the cold start, but other than that it's amazing.

Anyone with a midpipe experience rattling at cold start? I know it was very common with the F80's and read on the G80 forums that guys are experiencing it with their PSI midpipes.

I plan to have Phil from DetailersDomain do my Toronto Red Metallic X4MC coming hopefully in August with paint correction, partial protective film, and ceramic coating including both sets of rims and Red callipers 🚘

I think the idea, at least on the G8X, is that the springs on the exhaust valves are either weak or have some play so that they rattle during cold start.

The PSI midpipe on my G82 rattled because the center section hit the cross brace. PSI has since corrected their jig and that no longer is a problem.

Attempted to install H&R springs. Got the rears in no problem. Couldn't get the front struts out of the knuckle. DIYers beware. Ended up making an appointment to complete the install. Running around like this till Wednesday.

Drove mine about 70 miles with the ER mid-pipe. I only wish it could start without the harsh rasp. I don’t commute so no early AM cold starts but it’s pretty freaking load until idle drops. I’m in an HOA and don’t want to deal with any issues. Neighbor had a truck with straight pipes and I hear he had to remove them. He would start that at 5:45 AM.
