MAD Midpipes install, very happy!
I thought I would post this as it may be useful to others In the same boat. I wanted to better the sound of the exhaust on my 21' M5C and wasn't keen on spending thousands on a brand new exhaust system. So I ordered MAD BMW F90 M5 F92 M8 S63R MIDPIPES instead.
(https://x-ph.com/mad-bmw-f90-m5-f92-m8-s63r-midpipes/) I had them installed yesterday and there is a definite, much improved exhaust tone. It's louder slightly but there is a noticeable change to the tone, it's now much deeper and way more aggressive without being overly loud, lots of pops and bangs now too is sport plus. Also there is a noticeable improvement to the throttle response, seems to pick up much quicker and have more useable power lower down the rev range. I don't know whether it's my mind lying to me because of the new exhaust noise but it also feels faster as it moves through the gears. Overall I am very happy with it and would definitely recommend as it's relatively inexpensive and not that hard to fit. No issues with CEL either which is a plus! Will try to get some decent videos of the sound if helpful. |

Congrats, OP
At the current price, this mod is a no-brainer, in my opinion

This is a great mod, and it will add power and turbo spool up. You can go 9s 1/4 with secondary down pipes only and other supporting mods.

It's a straightforward install; I doubt it took them longer than 1 hour on the lift to complete it

Thanks for feedback. I was going to buy cat back but for under 400 it seems like a perfect mod. Are you looking to do x pipe as well ?

Are these considered or otherwise known as the secondary Downpipes (Ones which you can run Catless and not have a CEL)? They should fit the CS right?

CS I'm unsure but would think so, someone with more knowledge is better to answer though! Yes to your first question - these are secondary DP with no cat and no CEL

From what I understand, CS has same engine, turbos and downpipes as regular M5. Just some weight reduction parts and suspension tuning and slightly raised boost.

MAD offers the primary pipes; you can get it directly from them; we do not offer catless downpipes.

Was anything else at all needed for the install? May order these from Mike this week, just want to make sure I get everything I need. I'll be installing them myself.
