Valvetronic vs. Awe on N26

Hey guys,

I am looking into buying an axle-back for my N26. The current setup is an ER catless, stock mid, and an OEM 335i axle-back.

I've been trying to figure out which exhaust I should go for: the AWE or Valvetronic exhaust. I know a lot of people are running the AWE and it definitely sounds fantastic but I can get the Valvetronic for almost the same price and it's valved. The only problem is I cannot find any sound clips of the Valvetronic on an n26. So I'm hoping somebody in here has some kind of sound clip of some sort. Thanks as always.

You already know this, but the decision will be based on the valves.

If it's important to you to control the sound to make it quieter or louder depending on the situation, get the Valvetronic.

If you do not see yourself needing to control the valves, the AWE is one of the best-sounding exhausts.

Copy, thank you. Might just have to go with the AWE option and change up my tune in order to control the sound a little from comfort to sport. Thanks you.
