Ok, yes maybe that's the problem🤦*♂️ Can find any M-performance exhaust for this car in Europe either. I guess need to order a downpipe and exhaust from the states. Any ideas from where?

In theory you can buy tune DownPipe for USA cars, buy OEM MidPipe from USA cars, and M-Performance silencer from USA cars. But I'm not sure for 100% that it will fit plug and play. USA exhaust system and Europe have different connections, because of that you can't just install M-Performance silencer in Europe car. If you can install USA exhaust configuration you will get maximum performance and sound that builds on OEM parts.

I currently have a 340i MPE X AWE midpipe. It sounds identical to the MPPSK full setup and its awesome.
I will be able to compare to the new M340 with MPE when it arrives.

Would anyone with MPE be willing to take a few minutes out of their day and do this to get a good recording of MPE sound?

Uploaded an MPE drive off video for those that want some more sound clips. Will add the revving video and another acceleration/flyby type video tomorrow.

Wow that drive off video sounded great.

So a fully stock car but with an MPE upgrade!

The stock cars I have heard in youtube videos are a fair bit quieter. Probably the difference between hearing them in a recording vs live.....
This one has some burbles, but other than that sounds quieter to me:

Im pretty sure you'd know if your car came with the MPE. You definitely would have paid for it, it's $2000. Check your window sticker. Some people are just more sensitive to small differences in recordings but those differences are probably magnified in real life.

What to do with old exhaust

For those of you that have upgraded their exhaust, what have you done with your old exhaust? Is there a market for a used stock m340i exhaust? It would make the purchase of an MPE easier to justify if I knew I was getting $500-1k back for the old exhaust. Thank you.
