Subbed. Very interested in this valved setup. Curious to hear from a couple more owners. How quick is the turn around on these. If ordered let’s say Monday May 6th what’s a rough estimate for delivery to the states? Thanks.

Sorry for the long delay in a review.
Just for some context: My path has been OEM exhaust --> JCR Titanium Race Pipe --> JCR Titanium Valved Race Pipe
Review of Valved Race Pipe:
At idle - the valves open/closed is noticed. Also, physically you can see the valves working fine. Cold starts are still 'loud', but not in the same universe as the Race Pipe cold start. Only wake up 5 or 6 neighbors now, instead of the whole block.
At speed - valves open/closed is indistinguishable. Doesn't matter what RPM range, speed, etc. I cannot tell a difference, nor can my tech. The sound with valves open is probably 70% of the Race Pipe. Still sounds good, but definitely not the RSR replication that is the Race Pipe. Having said that, the drone is minimal in comparison to the Race Pipe. Very manageable in that respect, but again, same sound whether valves open or closed. It simply doesn't matter.
Overall, if the Race Pipe is too much, I'd go silenced Race Pipe all day long. Maybe go Silenced Race Pipe + Inconel headers? Might be the perfect match.
My personal problem is that I've experienced the Race Pipe under acceleration. There is nothing like it. It is absolutely without a doubt, the most insanely epic sound I've ever heard on a car. It's mental. Having that sound while maintaining civility is an oxymoron. I have to live with that.

I wonder what is causing this huge delta as the path of both pipes (valved / non-valved) is very similar when the valves are open.
JCR...thoughts?

This is contrary to what JCR has stated in this thread, both subjectively and objectively with the numerical assignment of sound. 70% of the non-valved race pipe sound is a huge delta. Even the videos of the valved race pipe on instagram sound similar to the non-valved race pipe.

I've been working with JCR to try and understand the delta, and also the indistinguishable difference between open and closed. I'm likely one of the few that have had the Race Pipe and now the Valved Race Pipe. Again - please take my subjective review with a grain of salt. The Valved Race Pipe still sounds really good.

Exhaust sound / volume etc is extremely subjective and we're working with ad2330 to ensure he's totally happy with the results.

^^ while I can't speak to the comparison, I can tell you that no reasonable person would hear the cold start with the valved race pipe and say "wish it was a little louder". it's chaotic (in a good way).

i like a little chaos xD i think if I can get 70% of the race pipe sound (subjective) and also be quiet when needed then this may be the right setup for me. Higher than what I wanted to spend but quality looks superb and I cannot help but grin every time I watch the videos.

Cold start on Brosef's car with the valved race pipe is indeed quite loud but it does quite down after 30 seconds. I heard it inside a shop with concrete floors and cinder block walls so that undoubtedly exacerbated the loudness.

Curious to hear what other owners of this system think. Anyone out there?

Still looking for feedback from other owners regarding inability to distinguish between valves open and valves closed. More closed valve videos would be helpful if anyone has them.

What is the production time currently for your valved race pipe and also your race headers?
