I agree videos can be deceiving because of the placement of the microphone, but I do also agree also that the 3 videos sound very close to / similar to the OEM exhaust.

The only assessment we can go off of is Jason340Msport
and he says it made a big difference compared to OEM - with his comments, I would tend to say it is the phone / videos that maybe aren't showing it off well enough.

It would help if maybe he could do a side by side video with an OEM M340i compared to Jason's. We are about 2 hours apart -- I would be willing to drive an hour or so to meet up and do the side by side video and comment - but since Jason works at a dealership I'm guessing he has access to stock M340i's on the lot that he could do this with.

This is definitely something I'm interested in though - I really miss the sound of my 2017 340i with MPPSK.
I will say the videos don't bring out the difference in sound that it should. There is a MAJOR difference between the stock exhaust and the MPE. I've started my car and ran it in front of my coworkers and they can't believe the difference in sound.

I will get a side by side of a stock M340 with mine and hopefully that will bring out the difference. Depending on the day(Saturday evening or Sunday morning) I would be willing to meet up as well.
