2021 M340 with muffler delete - otherwise stock | Sound and video

I just stumbled on this on youtube and thought I would share in that I know some people are curious about this...

I know nothing about the car or the shop, just sharing what I found

I have seen this. Sounds great but I would never get away with that in VA...are the CATS still on the car? See: Emissions.

Good question, was he revving in comfort? Then again I drove a 2021 loaner while car was in service and the thing had zero pops and cracks in sport +.
But keep reading from others that MPE Or other aftermarket exhaust systems helps or adds them but who knows.

Edit: Just thought about this some more and you’d lose the valve with a muffler delete, so it can’t be in comfort right? If the case, it sounds good but Disappointing with respect to pops/cracks compared to 2020

I skipped through the video - but I do believe the chap mentions that it is the stock DP. And if that's the case the cat is still in place

Does a DP really void warranty?

I personally would not use this video as a source of correct information regarding warranty or how to install a rear diffuser.

I think it's a good reference for sound and that's about it.

The pops and crackles are from coding, the valve just impacts volume by increasing or decreasing the muffling. So yes, comfort mode will still make a difference in exhaust note
