Now, if MaxHaust really wanted to take it to the next level.......downloable exhaust sounds would be awesome! |

Also there's a specialist audio place in Bishop's Stortford http://www.audiofile-incar.co.uk/aud...7-and-x-series Who might be interested. I'm in the verge of getting Focals for the doors and I giving them the at may as well treat it to some good exhaust noise too. I find the synthesised noise too "tappy", unless of course I have an ICE issue!! |

In terms of installing, any decent local stereo shop would be good or auto electrician. The places I know are a little further afield. Or for fun you could ask North Oxford for a quote |

I like the sound just trying to justify it. This is the first car I have ever owned that the sound is not real (I'm still getting used to that),and making it even more unreal is not something I am sure about yet.

http://www.audiofile-incar.co.uk They said they'd quoted one i8 owner very recently. I'm having them fit Focal front speakers. Seems like a decent place who know what they are doing with BMWs. |

Hi - yes I got this:
Hi Lawrence, I can’t quote on it as we are not supplying the kit etc. More than happy to do the job for you, I would guess at around 3 hours which is £216 but don’t hold me to it. Kind regards, Gary Hallwood Which was a little vague; this issue is the inside panels; I have had my interior from and rear and rear boot/engine cover, recovered in Alcantara Suede and it was a big job to remove/replace the panels. |

I've read this tread; very interesting! I drive my i8 now for almost 5 months and really want to upgrade the sound.
Anyone who knows a place in the Netherlands where a dealer or local audio shop can fix this with the active sound booster package for me? Any suggestion would be appreciated! |

To the people who have this installed,
When you are driving, do you notice a slight lag from the acceleration to the maxhaust sound boost? I just got mine installed from a shop and I sometimes notice that they are a bit off beat. |

So yea after testing, When my car is parked and I am reving the engine, the noise is in perfect sync. Even if I lightly press the gas pedal. When I am in drive and drive about 10-15 mph, I don't hear anything Is that normal ? Last edited by victoorious; 04-06-2017 at 06:33 PM.. |

maybe your gas engine is not engaged ?
the speaker is activated only when the gas engine is on and at idle...when you're only in electric drive the speaker is not active.... when you have it in sport mode you should here it all the time. |

Ohh that makes sense . So when you're driving on comfort mode , if you're driving slow enough , the engine is not on correct ? That's why I'm not hearing it? |
