Where for art thou, Boomgear?

Wait, so the OEM valve motor gets moved (im assuming to keep for no CEL), and in its place is a aftermarket valve motor and controller thats on the new exhaust valve? And the after market part is more resilient to heat? Im not sure what im looking at.

Me either, but im giving it a try to see what it does. Here’s the instructions from Mach5 that does the same.

Yeah, that weird. In my head I thought they just removed the valve completely and had the controller just working 'in air' so that the car thinks the controller is still doing it job but is in fact controlling nothing. Then the new exhaust is valve less. I guess I was completely wrong! haha

Yeah I just want to know what is the usage and practical difference between this setup vs something like the milltek controller. And if there are any advantage/disadvantage.

There are definitely non-valved mufflerless pipes for the emira i4, and i think milltek controller would work there for the valve motor just mounted somewhere.

Something like this.

Curious what that would sound like (other than being loud).

This technically wouldn't sound any different from our current aftermarket exhaust offerings when the valve is set to open, since the open position routes exactly like this, basically all of them.
