Absolutely! And I did. Initially I had the Touring (non-resonated) before switching. Loved it in Sport mode with the stock DP, but I knew it was going to be loud with an aftermarket DP (future plan) and I also wanted to quiet down a bit in Normal mode, so I went with a valved option.
Do you have any videos of the touring non res with the stock DP?

Nice!

AA catted DP is what I ordered as well. Can't wait!

I see yours is a '21 - are you tuned? If not, no CEL, right?
No drone with this setup, I presume?

No, I don't. But here are some of videos from YouTube. All of these are stock DP, non-resonated AWE Touring.

I love my HKS exhaust and would put in my order for one again knowing the wait. Everything else major I've ordered has been several months at this point haha.

I have the magnaflow and I love it given its the only exhaust I put on this car other than stock. I believe most people like whatever they put on their car so it will be a little biased. To me it was important to have a valved setup and also have carbon tips to go with all the other carbon bits I have on her. Cold starts are pretty loud even with the valve closed but normal driving its really quiet, and of course she has a great sound when its open. I've also learned that all the exhaust sound clips on Youtube pale in comparison to hearing them in person. You cant go wrong with any of them.

Thank you, from your experience how much louder than stock was it? and how different the tone, I want a deeper more aggressive tone, because the car can get a little airy sometimes stock in terms of tone if that makes sense

The AWE lineup is great. Looks and sounds are AWEsome (see what I did there? Lol.)

HKS is also up there, but I'm not a fan of burnt/titanium tips.

I just wanted an exhaust that retained the valve for more customization, so I went with the Magnaflow xMOD. Love it so far!
Agreed on the HKS tips. Not a fan of burnt tips, nor thin single wall tips. The exhaust itself is incredible.

Love the AWE 5" double wall polished tips.

Those tips on the HKS dual muffler system would be a dream.

@Meraki Autoworks is that possible to put together?

Definitely deeper and more aggressive.

The non-resonated pairs well with the stock DP. But if you get an aftermarket DP (especially catless), you may want to consider the non-res-to-res conversion kit down the road as it's a nice option to have if you don't want it too loud.

I have the AWE resonated touring with an AA catted DP and it sounds IMMENSE. No valve wasn't an issue for me, and a few buddies have AWE exhausts on their F80 and F22s and have loved them. I really really recommend the AWE.

Here is a sound byte, but it does not convey how deep the sound is.

I do really like the tone of the AWS resonated touring with a DP, my only concern is with how loud it is. That's something that's really hard to convey through videos, but I was watching one of the official ones from AWE and the end of it concerned me. After the car took off down the road and started slowing down, you could still hear every single burble, pop, crack, and throttle blip as clear as if it was right next to the camera, when the car was like a quarter mile away. How loud is that setup really?

Unfortunately not unless you get it done custom.

It is loud, but no where near straight pipe loud. If you aren't looking for a volume boost, I'd keep the stock exhaust on the car.

I like the Borla, but seen some lamination issues on the carbon fiber tips.
