What are your experiences with AC Schnitzer vs Remus? They both sound good on YouTube, but also kinda different.

Has anyone heard both of them live to share thoughts?

Regarding quality or regarding the sound too?

I know Remus is top-notch too. Just wondering about the exhaust note.

Remus Exhaust - Fitted!


Finally got round to have the exhaust last weekend. Even though it is/can be a DIY job, it was just easier and quicker to have my local specialist do it.

Overall, I very pleased with the new look and the sound! I wasn't sure about the 550i diffuser at first as it doesn't look very aggressive. Having had it wrapped in Gloss Black made it a little better to look at. Seeing it on the car now with the tips fitted , it doesn't look too bad in my opinion. I have seen that the M550i LCI does have a slighly more detailed diffuser which I might change to at a later date (just need to wait for the part number to be available on realoem)

In terms of sound, it is so much better. I have not tried cold start yet with it - but I do have GTS roar and mild burbles set in BM3. Under load - the car sounds more alive with a deep bassy tone. I'm glad I listened to buddyboy 's advice and went for the axel back. I already have a res delete on mine so didn't need to Remus mid pipe. It's plenty loud enough for a daily driven car.

I did notice the spring clip for the valve rattles a little (My OEM exhaust used to do this). I solved the OEM issue by pulling the spring outwards to create more tension between the actuator and the valve slot on the exhaust. I will try and to the same on this one. Other then that, I'm really pleased with the way this modification turned out

I need to capture some sound clips which I will share when I have some.

Hi. I have a 2020 540 xi m performance. It sounds like with an m performance diffuser, the catback Remus it is a direct bolt-on? Do I need to source anything like a gasket? I believe I can use the factory harness and wiring and move the valve actuator over? Please confirm, thanks.
