Mach5 Race Spec Catback Exhaust!
- Thread starter docron

So that link says it's not secure, and there is no option to purchase. I am a bit confused. Also, I don't see the controller relocation mount in that link.
How did you purchase?

contact info is there, they aren't that snappy at responding but they will get back to you. You mainly just need to know how much to Paypal including shipping - they won't send an invoice once they quote you, you just pay via Paypal and then it shows up. Also the exhaust came VERY fast, about three shipping days.
Cause not much ppl use email in China nowadays...Mach5performance

Are they only using Wechat mostly?
I would say almost to the point "ONLY". They only use email when they need to communicate with ppl overseas.
Fitted my race spec Mach 5 yesterday. haven't driven it yet, but started it and it sounds different/better than the Mach5 Cat-Back exhaust I had fitted. It really frees up space and i like the simplicity, there is pretty much nothing to fail now and it saves a few kg. I was never able to get the Mach5 exhaust valve working reliably on my M5 CAT-Back (with silencer and additional valve), the supply cable to the M5 valve melts very easily. In hindsight, the cable should have been replaced, the cable supplied by Mach5 is trash and not fit to be anywhere near an exhaust. With quality high temp cable and some insulation it would've likely been fine.
Finally also got 1 of my Tillett seats installed, with clip in 6 point harness.

Very nice. Looking forward to video/sound clips.

no valves on this exhaust
I did wonder where they might hide them and in truth was only half listening to the clip.no valves on this exhaust
Heard something about valves at the end so assumed
$499 should be for the race spec catback exhaust only, the downpipe itself should be $1500-2k depending on if they have a 'special'/sale on it...after shipping and any import fees you're probably around $3k USD for both parts.
Quality downpipes on other platforms that do not throw CELs are comparable in price...you get what you pay for here, and Mach 5 have done a lot of testing on these downpipes with multiple iterations to get it right. I have both their race exhaust + downpipe, no CELs at any point after over 1,500 miles now. Cannot recommend the sound enough, it truly transforms the car and I doubt the i4 will get much better sound than this setup.
I shared some thoughts and videos in the other Mach 5 thread here:
Mach5 downpipe and SS exhaust review
Will be interested to know if there is a downpipe only vs downpipe + exhaust comparison.

Thanks. No doubt it sounds amazing.$499 should be for the race spec catback exhaust only, the downpipe itself should be $1500-2k depending on if they have a 'special'/sale on it...after shipping and any import fees you're probably around $3k USD for both parts.

I've been quoted 2.1k for the down pipe and 1.6k for the cat back (I don't think it's the race spec one).
Very possible they raised their prices...the race catback they did say was on sale when I bought mine, they actually brought it down to $490 USD for me. If your prices are AUD then the exhaust price is like $1-1.1K USD now, which while high, I honestly still would have paid lol. $500 seemed insanely cheap for the build/quality.
How do you find the noise level of the Race Spec? Thinking of going down this route given its 1100USD cheaper than Sport Back version and the only difference is the Valve.
