I realize that what I just typed sounds like a joke but I’m serious. First time I had an i8 on the lift I figured that could not be an actual exhaust pipe since the plastic grille in front of it would melt so I looked inside and could see the wiring and speaker in there. Maybe they put this external ASD inside a fake metal exhaust tip to help it sound more like a real exhaust note?
Thank you for clearing that out, been wondering about it for a while now
