Default New version of valve controller from Cargraphic

New version of valve controller, now operated via the exhaust button on the centre console. Seems really nice, what do you think?

Hmm, no fob? Uses console buttons I think.

LINK

Features:
  • Convenient and safe operation by factory switch (PSE / tailpipe button in center console)
  • Factory control remains connected
  • Quiet engine start possible* (see how it works)
  • Easy connection and installation
  • Traceless deinstallation
  • Get full control of your exhaust valves
  • Activation of factory valve control unit is always possible
Exhaust valve control unit - how it works:
The CARGRAPHIC valve control unit is installed between the exhaust valves and the factory control unit. The CARGRAPHIC valve control is activated by a combination of buttons in the interior. Subsequently, the 2 operation modes are selected by the PSE / tailpipe button in the center console:
  • SPORT mode: valves always open
  • COMFORT mode: valves always closed (security open at 4000 rpm)
The last selected mode is saved even after the engine is switched off and is executed when the engine is started again.

PERFORMANCE - Made in Germany

Not super familiar with all the connections would like to see the install guide. Hopefully this makes it even easier.

Says simple installation? Doesn't look simple with all those wires and piggybacking Perhaps easier than accessing engine bay with the benefit of no remote keyfob to control flaps. Would be ideal solution for those without a tune.

I wonder if you open up the console to install it.

Sell the design to Soul?

And yeah I'll likely be paying someone to do the install, but I'd prefer the factory button. Will probably pick this up soon after my car arrives.

Could, it's really at a Beta stage and needs more work to be ready for primetime.

Looks similar to the 3 way controller. I personally liked the 2 way as it was pretty much unplug, replug and ground. It was super simple to install.

Looks like it mounted on a plate and gets bolted down.

It would be nice if it remembers the previous settings for all the buttons in the center stack. Like getting 2 devices in one.
I'd be very interested in this product if it did that.
