Right if you order the car with MPE parts your good but if you mod the car afterwards then I believe you have to return everything to the original build. I know some dealers don't really care if the cpo for that car has a high demand

What's up guys i'm new on the forum. I currently have a 2021 M340 on order. By now we all have read that the 21's have the Mild hybrid system and are quieter than the 20's. does anyone have a video of a 21 with MPE that stock? i'm debating if i should add it at the port. here's a video of a 21 with the stock exhaust i revved it in sport cold start then switched to eco.

I am definitely old compared to most of you guys, but using mine for a daily driver that stock note should be fine. I don't want a weekend ripper driving it every day. I already have one of those and the wife is afraid I am waking them up (our neighbors) early enough on weekends with that one on the way to CnC

i work at bmw so after driving it a bunch of times i can confirm that it does still burble around 3-5k. Does not crack at all. Example i drove the X3 M40 When you turn it on it automatically pops and when you left off the gas around 6k rpm the crack is super loud.

Will let you know when I get mine my thoughts, but I am coming from a 330I so my guess is it will be fine.

Are you trying the pops and burbles at stand still or while driving?
I got 02.2020 m340 and when im reving it at P no pop no burble ... I was like well my car is broken. Then I went for a drive second gear floor it and release the throttle the car starts right away to pop and bang which is super cool. But at standstill no pops at all. Or maybe they are so quite that I cannot heard them. |

I work for BMW and theres a night and day difference from a 2020 to a 2021 (I own a 2021).
There is almost no pops and burbles at all in the 2021. The 2020s that I drove almost had too many if thats possible,It was happening all the time. Sounded great though. IF anything BMW should have done a comfort mode with no pops and burbles and sport mode made it sound like the 2020 sounded. They seem to never get it right w these types of things though. I wish my car had some more noise, a little bit would be nice. Instead of almost none. |

Can also confirm the 2021 has almost no cracks and pops. Had a 2021 loaner and it only burbles slightly in sport plus when lifting off throttle. No pops or cracks when down shifting.
Got back in my 2020 and it cracks and pops like crazy on throttle lift/down shift and up shift. |

The difference is drastic between the 2020 and 2021 models. I tested both within 5 minutes of one another. Just revving at low RPMs when parked still gives the 2021 a decent sound but while driving the 2020 is definitely much more engaging without being obnoxious. I am ordering a 2021 m340i because I could not get my hands on a 2020 model with the right options. I will be doing something to the stock exhaust as it is too disappointing as is. Possibly MPE, DINAN or other aftermarket solution. I find that at low (less than 2500RPMS) the tone of the 2021 is not bad but once you get any higher in the revs it is nothing more than a stock Corolla. It all depends on what you are looking for in the car but if you are going to pay more for an m340i instead of a 330 than you want to hear the engine and improve your driving experience (in my opinion). Whatever changes I would make however would need to assure that in comfort mode it will not be obnoxious and cause you to be afraid to cold start your car in the morning.

I agree but at the price point the M340 is a beast! let me know what you do to yours my build is supposed to be here by the end of the year. What options did you go with?

Mine will only be arriving in February. I have not made a decision yet on the MPE. Still looking at other options. Worst case will be MPE. I'm debating waiting to hear it as is before making any changes (wishful thinking).

In anticipation of receiving my 2021 M340i, I am trying to analyze potential aftermarket exhaust systems. I have been looking at the BMW MPE, Dinan Axle-Back, AWE Touring as well as Innotech Performance Exhaust. Apart from the MPE does anyone have any information on these other options with a 2021 model? I would prefer to stay away from the AWE given that it removes the valves which are key to keeping your neighbours happy!
