The Ultimate Exhaust Guide To The G80 M3, G82 M4 And G83 M4 | G80 M3 Exhaust

- Finding the right exhaust for my G80 M3 was an interesting one. I had the opportunity to hear many different setups and be able to test a few products early before the general market did.
My current exhaust setup :
Active Autowerke High Flow Gesi Catted Downpipes
Active Auto Equal Length Midpipe
AWE Switchpath Exhaust
The reason why I made this video, is that I get questions about my exhaust setup and I want people to know that it won't be a direct fit. You will need to get it modified / custom fitted that some people may not want to spend the money one. I honestly think this is one of the best sounding exhaust setups out there. It has a deep low end tone and a smoother S58 high end tone.

Amazing video and very informative !
Thank you appreciate you checking out the video!
That Goliath race exhaust and the last one are the best 2 for sure.
ive got to stop watching these videos while waiting for delivery
Hide that credit card 💳 lol
I'm thinking just getting the AA single mid pipe and stock exhaust.
The best sounding setup is the last example. The AA equal-length makes this engine sound like a true straight six. I just ordered the AA equal-length mid-pipe a couple days ago for my G87. I’m not a huge fan of excessive pops and bangs. My question is how did you quiet/lessen your pops and bangs?
Every setup sounds good and unique in their own way 🔥 gonna be making a similar vid comparing all the active setups soon 👌🏽
Yeah everyone has a different characteristic about it. It's good.to provide the community with these type of videos so they can spend more money lol and know some options.
Whats the drone like on your last setup which does sound the best imo
Hey bro I really appreciate the informative video and hope you keep it up. Just a quick question, how do I make my g80/g82 sound super loud with it sounding similar to a v12 scream or a straight piped gt3 rs. Thank you man.
those are 2 completely different engine layouts, the G8x series will never sound like that
Glad i found this video, i cant decide which one or what to get for my 2024 m4 competition xdrive 😭
It's tough man but imo, the Equal length midpipe paired up with most rear axlebacks are solid 👌🏻
@TheDailyDriven I was going for the MAD midpipe non resonated with a dahler control valve but like I said there's so many options lol! Thanks bro 👊
For sure there are so many options lol. 🤘🏻
nice one!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you for the awesome comparison video! I’m really thinking about going with the AWE Switchpath and AWE non res midpipe. Any significant drone? I know you don’t have that set up anymore, what were the cons? And have you gotten a valve controller?
I honestly think the awe setup is a great setup if you didn't want to go the unique route I went. There was no drone, with that setup. I will be getting a valve controller to help open the entire setup even more.
You'll have one of the deepest tones with AWE since it's a 3" pipe
@@TheDailyDriven Awesome. Thanks man! I am 99% sure that’s the route I’m going. Appreciate the feedback!! Love the content.
Just ordered the AWE Switchpath exhaust with their non-res midpipe. So stoked, I’m torn if I want to do downpipes too since we’ll be right there during the installs. I love how the setup sounds with the exhaust + midpipe, I’m afraid to go down the catted DP route as I’ve noticed drone and raspiness.
Love all of the new gen M cars even though I currently own AMGs. My only issue with tge M3s/M4s is that they always sound like a buzzy six banger. It just doesnt matter what exhaust is installed, it will never sound like a V8. The M5s/M8s sound tremendous regardless of exhaust. Every car enthusiast knows whats coming around the corner from the sound, and 6 bangers just dont have it.
Appreciate this video. I’m definitely sold on AA EL mid pipe. Will be my first exhaust addition so we’ll see if I stop there. From what I’ve seen it sounds decent enough with the stock muffler.
It's definitely a nice addition to any S58 platform. I definitely think when it comes to modding. Take your time and enjoy the process. No need to go full send right away.
@@TheDailyDriven yessir, I agree. I ordered it today! Getting a few CF goodies for Black Friday but otherwise playing it slow.
Which brand would you recommend if I was looking for moderately a little more bark with valves open and pretty quite with values closed. Does changing out the exhaust affect the warranty?
I would recommend mid pipes. Specifically, imo ActiveAuto works. In general, as long as you do not mess with the primary catalytic converters modifying your exhaust will not affect warranty (at least in America). I have an equal length activeauto work’s mid pipe equipped to my G87. It has drastically improved the engine’s exhaust note and volume. The mid pipe is connected to the stock catalytic converters and the stock muffler. So the stock valves are still used, which means the exhaust will get subtle in efficient mode. The mid pipe is the most cost effective exhaust modification available😃👍🏻
I had the rattle on cold start on mine too after switching to ApexBuilt HFC DPs and ER 3' midpipe. Instead of buying a new axle-back, I just had my exhaust tech weld the valves fully open and tuck everything under the heat shield.
Its a little too aggressive, so Im actually going to put the OEM midpipe back on. Or find a resonated midpipe.
The cold start rattle was extremely loud and the level of vibration it caused could not have been healthy for the car. It was beyond annoying and aggravating. I wish you could use Bimmerlink or bimmercode to code out cold start, but until Im formally tuned, I resolved the manner.
The issue with S58 is if you go to aggressive with the exhuast you get some extremely annoying drone at low rpms(highway rpms). Evolution Racewerks dual 3' midpipe with their 3' crosspipe, ApexBuilt HFC DPs with OEM Axleback with valves fully open is extremely loud.
I initially wanted to free up flow to maximize performance, but a little resonation I think is needed on the exhaust when you upgrade the DPs. At least thats my personal opinion. Perhaps aftermarket axle-backs wont have the cold start rattle, but as far as performance gains I didnt see a cost/benefit justification.
So Ill switch back to OEM midpipe, until I find a resonated midpipe, or perhaps consider AA midpipe with the high flow secondaries. Maybe thats enough to reduce the drone a bit. Finding that perfect balance between, performance, sound, and driveability is a bit challenging with the S58.
Cold start delete via bootmod3 was a game changer for my F82
how about AA equal length mid-pipe vs single mid-pipe? which one sound better?
Really depends. Depends if you want a deeper tone or smooth. (Single = deeper) (equal length = smoother)
love my f82 but came to the conclusion that these new bmw engines just dont sound good anymore lol.. the active autowerk setup in the black one at the end was dope tho
What would you recommend for someone who wants to keep the warranty (bought extended warranty) and hates loud pops and bangs and raspiness of a lot of G80s I hear but also wants better than stock sound? I just want a little better than stock sound and don't want to be annoying to anyone.
Most dealerships will look past exhaust modifications. I say most lightly since there's always that one or two that would. I would start off by getting the midpipe swapped. If you hate the rasp, I would high reccomend the equal length midpipe from Active Autowerke. It can be paired up to your stock axleback and stock downpipes.
Very nice just take some or that burbels away and it will sound mean
I hate the burbles. Those are factory.
yeah the cold start with the AA equalizing mid pipe and stock rear and downpipe just rattles those valves big time. Got to do something about that. Definitely a burble boy with this setup.
What I plan on doing is getting a Valve controller to help with the verbal issue. You'll see why in a future video
@@TheDailyDriven Will be looking forward to your vid.
what do u recommend bro for first upgrade
catted down pipe from active
or equal lenght mid pipe from active ??
m3c xdrive
One of the biggest difference that you were here with an exhaust upgrade would be the mid pipe whether it's the single mid pipe or the equal length.
thanks for fast responds alot venders tell me with the down pipe i will get more noise and power since comes from engine ,, and AA equal lengh with give me drone if just do it by it self
at the kies show u told me it would rattle
i can only do one upgrade at this time 🤷🏻♂️ so confused
@@A29Cepeda most of the rattling will only happen on cold starts. It seems to be a common occurrence even with other men pipes. It's really not that bad. You'll definitely enjoy the sound when you change the mid pipe. The stock midsection of the car has two resonators which keeps the car very quiet
so equal lenght mid pipe what u recommend to go with first ,,
any drone will driving and will i need a valve controller im going usr stock box
You shouldn't have any drone. I would take it one step at a time to see how you like things. So you're not wasting any money that you don't need to spend. I personally like the equal length. But you have to decide yourself I can't make that decision
Last one! No rasp.
the stock muffler just drives me crazy how big it is...I just want the get the muffler replaced for a smaller one
Yes the stock Muffler is so massive. One of the big downsides of it
Ultimate AA and AwE sponsorship guide fixed the title.
🙃
thanks for watching. have a blessed day
No, as a Latin american Resident, I'll go with full valvetronic exhaust
That's another good option
You are Bangladeshi?
If you watch this video and you don’t know which exhaust set up you want for your G80 after this… I’m sorry but just keep it stock haha
I have a catless and single straight midpipe with OE muffler G80; it sounds better than this.
Sponsored by and promoting AA.
😆😅. I'm definitely sponsored by them but I wouldn't put anything on my car that I'm not happy with.
@@TheDailyDriven Of course. I'm sure no one would put something on their car they are not happy with. But there are other quality brands that can be included in an "ultimate guide" video. This is basically AA sponsored guide.
Maybe it’s just me, but the G80 exhaust sounds terrible no matter which setup. Either sounds like a fart can civic or a trombone with burbles. Rather be stock then sound like a ricer
The F8x (F80,F82,F83) platform sounded even worse. In my opinion, the equal length midpipe transforms the tone to a respectable tone.
so that Active Autowerke G80/G82 M3/M4 Signature RACE ONLY Exhaust System - GOLIATH, would it sound better with a resonated downpipe to get a deeper sound ? I was thinking the MAD Resonated downpipe because I cant find the AA Downpipe without CATS on the website
