@@MatthewHowlett luckily where I live we don’t have any testing, but I know a lot of people who do switch back to the stock downpipe every couple years to pass emissions since it’s a relatively easy part to swap out and that’s pretty much the only way you can pass easily
@@Broke-Media yeah I’m looking to get a m240i that comes with the M performance exhaust and if it’s not loud enough get the mid resonator out and still should pass fine
@@MatthewHowlett yeah you should be fine running that setup, removing the cat on the downpipe is what seems to raise a red flag so you can either keep your stock cat to switch when needed or try to run a high flow catted downpipe
I ended up going single exit exhaust on mine, it gave a very deep tone but if I hadn't, this exhaust setup is what I would have wanted. Sounds incredible! running MHD Stage 2+ with e40 now. Also, great wheel setup! thats the style of wheel I want to go with but 17x9 as I want beefier tires for the roads in my area.
That’s sick! I haven’t heard a single exit yet but I’m sure it sounds good. You’ll definitely love stage 2+, especially with a e85 mix if you have some near you

Yeah definitely, I think the only time it really feels different is in corners or by size otherwise they drive very similar. Both great series and such a blast to drive
@@Rockout8778 appreciate it bro! The steering wheel and carbon fiber parts were actually factory upgrades from BMW but I’m sure you can find most of the parts on ECS Tuning or UroTuning
@@joshk6000 thanks man! This is a 2017 RWD. And it depends what you’re looking for, if it snows where you are then get awd so you don’t have to worry but if not then rwd handles a little better and I think a little more enjoyable but awd you’ll be able to get a faster 0-60 or 1/4 times. RWD is still great with good tires tho especially on a roll
If you don’t need the extra space get an M240i imo, they look more sporty, they’re lighter, handle a little better, and they hold their value better too
