I own a 2024 M440i & can’t make up my mind on what exhaust system to go with! Debating on the AWE Track Exhaust vs the MAD exhaust system. Wanted Valvetronic but can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money. Any recommendations!??

Currently have a 5" Catless downpipe, intake, & JB4 already installed…

AWE track is a straight pipe; it's loud and not refined.

The MAD exhaust compares more to the AWE Non-resonated touring.

What type of sound are you looking for?

I don't think you will want a straight pipe exhaust with a downpipe all the time. Our exhaust has a muffler and its dual valved which will give you that wide open straight pipe sound and a stockish type of tone when the valves are closed.

Honestly I’m looking for something a bit loud but that doesn’t sound horrible either…

I’ve considered the AWE Non-Resonated Touring but I’m afraid it’s not going to be loud enough to my liking. I’ve also watched all kinds of videos on the different exhausts on AWE but not the same like hearing it in person I feel like.

As far as MAD I’m not sure yet I been considering them but I’ve only seen & heard one person with it on an M4 & yea it sounds nice. But I’ve also seen posts about the fitting not being the best making tips pop out not flush looking

Not sure if MAD would be a better option then the AWE Touring

Idk to be honest I’ve heard straight pipe before on some cars and some sounds nice and some don’t I agree. But you’re saying that your guys exhaust system has the straight pipe sound open valved?

Appreciate the link! Video sounds 🔥 BUT not sure how I feel about the tips poking out so much though…

Have the MAD Exhaust + AA Catted DP on my 2020 M340. Mike hit the nail on the head describing the MAD exhaust to AWE Touring Non-Resonated. Honestly, the combo is a bit too loud to my liking and has slight drone on the freeway or under load in low gear. Likely swapping back to the stock exhaust soon. And yes, fitment on the initial install is a challenge even for the most reputable BMW tuner shop.

Correct. Im not saying it doesn't sound good you may just want it all the time with no choice to quiet it down.

I personally really like the AA downpipe and MAD exhaust combo. It’s nice being able to go quiet when needed and opening up whenever I want. Sounds great, not overly loud imo to where it sounds bad. But I think these cars just sound good anyways compared to other straight piped cars. Tips you can push in and out to adjust and they are perfect for me
