Where are we with cost? If this is around 1500 I'm definitely interested

Besides, the valves can usually be left in any intermediate position if you don't want full 'on' |

Second Sample has just arrived! I'll be installing it tomorrow. I have a buddy that will throw on my first sample this week so we can compare them side by side.
Once again, tips are just placeholders until my prototype ones arrive. But with that said, the placeholders they supplied me with look like bigger OEM tips Some notes on the Second sample. - Quality looks great, just like the first. - Same finish on the System, I can have it polished if there is a common vote to agree to this. (I don't mind it) - 2.5inch tubing unlike the 3inch of the first sample, most exhausts are done with 2.5inch. IMG_20180709_163508 IMG_20180709_162722 IMG_20180709_163650 IMG_20180709_163557 |

My evolve electronic dual mode exhaust takes like 5 seconds to go from on to off. Meanwhile you can stop it and leave the valves half open, etc

I guess they're different
The Evolve one I have uses QTP valves |

I'd like to note one thing which is extremely important.
On the second prototype, they made the Muffler pipe smaller than the other pipe, whereas they needed to both be the same size. This will only be on the sample and if we go with prototype 2 for production, they will both be the same size piping. With this said, The exhaust closed will have a slightly different tone and will be about 20% quieter as it is now. We should be able to pretty much hear what it'll sound like opened. |

This design looks much different than the first, what was the reason for the change in pipe routing?
IMO the new design doesn't 'look' like it will flow well esp when closed. I asked before but you didn't see a reply, is there going to be any dyno testing? or objective testing of any sort?

I don't have my own shop to keep changing exhausts and doing a bunch of Dyno runs with stock, and 2 prototypes. Unless someone offered... I would gladly do it. |

Looking forward to hearing the second sample of course but looking at the way the pipes are routed again I think I'd lean more toward the first as there is virtually no resonance area on the second design because the valve is so far back. At least on the first one since the valve is closer to the tips there is some tubing there to help reduce drone. Hard to tell for sure though since its all hidden inside a can.

Nice initiative!
I'm very tempted to change my M performance resonator. but.. 1. the design of the second version with a straight pipe passing the mufflers will make it evident to any one interested (good or bad) that this is a version not street legal in Europe = I'm out. 2. Why not make it controlled by the 'power' button? Should be fairly simple and would integrate everything smoothly. keep up the good work! // Chris Quote:

Sorry i'll make a update soon. Long story short i'm making a 3rd prototype. I don't want to take orders when the exhaust is not perfect and still needed some changes to minor details. |
