Cargraphic or akrapovic??

You really think the gains are skeptical? Pretty standard if you ask me. This mod is more for sound than anything else.
The car in the video had PSE from the factory and the setting for the entire video was in normal mode, so at the beginning, they are closed.

Dont you mean, the the video was in Sport mode (Valve Open) for the entire video, except for the start-up at the begining?
#18
I can see how that is confusing. Did that clarify?
#20
So the valves were closed in the video and not opened?

Bigfra, Any reason you have not considered our exhaust system? We are very proud of this particular exhaust. There is simply no drone in the cabin and sounds stellar at wide open throttle.

In terms of percentage, how louder do you think the sound increases related to PSE?

I was not aware of a "threshold where they open" in normal mode. I'm still breaking in though, so maybe I just haven't been there yet :-)

So the car in the video had the PSE from the factory. The button still works and can be pressed to bypass the factory mufflers, just like OEM PSE. If you don't press the button the valves work the same way that a non PSE would operate. Meaning that depending on how agressive your throttle application is, the valves will open and close.
So in the beginning of the video, the car was started and revved without the button being pressed. The gasses were still going through the factory side mufflers. However, when the car was being driven, it was being driven agressively enough where the valves would open on their own.
Bottom line is that the valves work identically to the OEM PSE or non PSE exhaust.
Hope that helped!

Would you mind emailing me your address? I can prepare a proper estimate and email it for your approval.
Thanks!

With the valves closed it is about 10-12% louder, and with the valves open I would say about 20-30% louder. Most importantly, there is zero drone. So that should make the PDK guys really happy.

I also just asked my lead engineer something that has not come up yet. If you are an S car with or without PSE, the factory valves will open at right around 3400 rpm.
Keep the questions coming...
