That pretty much does it for me. If there is no mod for this based off what is stated that the new ecu cannot be cracked, its either a 2020 or something else.
Other than the new styling of the 340i, the exhaust sound sold me and also adding a Mperformance exhaust.

Picked up my MY21 M340i xdrive with the MPE and can confirm no pops so far with only 200 miles on it. It does burble though when coming off throttle in sport plus mode. Coming from a Veloster N which had the pops this feels a little more mature. The exhaust note on the m340i with MPE is much deeper, throatier, and louder than the 4 banger on the veloster N.

The difference in startup sounds suggest more than just ECU tuning for the exhaust note change. At the very least the exhaust flap sounds closed, but even then the volume level when revving sounds a bit different. Did they also add a resonator or put in a different muffler? RealOEM isn't updated for MY21 yet, but will be interesting to see when it is.
Also makes me consider upgrading to an M3 more as people might want my more tunable MY20 if I do. |

Every part is the same, its the ECU that's controlling the burble/pops. Same cat, same front pipe, same exhaust muffler. |

I doubt it. Most people buying these cars either don't know about the change or don't care.
