You car is very quiet but that supercharger whine is addictive!

[Scrape]

Reminds me of this video. I still love this car for some reason.

Had SLP on it for a very short time, found mondo loud exhaust took too much away from the overall experience for my taste.

[Scrape]

I am with you. Those extremely loud exhaust is not my cup of tea. I do love my active exhaust on my car though. It’s quiet when I want it.

Seriously considering electric dumps or some sort of active exhaust for the near future. Odd time, do wish it had a hair or twenty more bark but generally enjoy the quiet.

[Scrape]

Electric dumps would be perfect.

I'm with you on that one.

[Laffs]

Have they made e-dumps that are reliable and dont leak? I recall dealing with a set on my Dads CTS-V and all brands had issues in one shape or another. It's a somewhat ideal solution for those of us that they don't make active exhausts for.

[ZR]

Also wondering if any will stand up to intense heat at track days.

[RedSN]

Was thinking trying to design an active exhaust muffler with some sort of internal baffle bypass. Will need muffler bearings to make it work.

:( looks like I’m late getting to the patent office again.

[ZR]

Isn't that cool.

[Scrape]

That is cool stuff. Very similar in design on our Mini and the M2.

^^^was wondering about that. Have seen a lot of BMW's with what looks like dual exhaust, but one pipe completely clean, and the other all sooty.

[Scrape]

I used wonder as well. I figured it out that when they drive in comfort mode the valve stays closed and when in sport mode it opens up.so I gather they never get out of comfort mode. All 4 of my tips are nasty lol

Same here, it had me scratching my head. I've also noticed the same with C6 and C7 vettes.

Wow you guys 8 months of winter ?

[Old Fart]

Sure feels that way...2-3 inches fell in that storm.

[ZR]

Moderate to heavy salt n brine on the 401 all the way out n past London.

[Quicksilver]

I had it all arranged for this weekend. But then i thought...why bother? Can't go anywhere. Can't do anything. The government is even discouraging going for a drive. So i'll leave it another week or two.
