If I am correct, the valves open up and it bypasses the mufflers. Its sort of like running an open exhaust when you feel like it.

Well so far... I REALLY miss the 645/m6 lol... yes it performs great, until it slows down from heat soak haha... Fast maneuvers, cornering is feels like its going to give out.. O well lol It looks nice...
