This a piece for those that like paying for the name.

Well, for starters the X is not as harsh of an angle…so that would be one reason the MRF pipe might flow better. Second, I've lined up with a BW equipped/tuned car (track) and had car lengths on him by the top of fourth.
Headers are another story.
I was like you guys, completely in denial. Bolt on performance upgrades are tough for these cars. After an exhaust, tune, and some bolt ons, you really start to see diminishing returns. However, after doing my research and also hearing Malek's car in person, I needed this piece.
Since installing it, I couldn't tell you how many "that's the perfect tone" compliments I've gotten. It's felt like the special ingredient that the car was missing the first year I had it (MS X pipe then.) I've never come across another m3, besides other MRF-equipped cars, that have the same high pitched howl from 4500rpm and up. Additionally, the scavenging sound after lifting off is completely demonic.
