Louder exhaust

Hey guys,

I have an X3 30i but I just wanted to know is there a way to make the exhaust louder and with pops and burbles without cutting or installing new exhaust pipes? Is there something that I can buy to attach or put in the stock exhaust to get me what I'm looking for?

Thanks

Exhaust alone does not bring pops and burbles. That is all done via DME software. You will need a tune to get pops and burbles.

Depends on which tune you talking about?
You can either go with bootmod 3 or a loud music system! 😜

Also if you go for pops and burbles you may need to get a catless downpipe, depending on what kind of aggression you're trying to go for. You have the potential to damage the factory catalyst with excessive overrun

Need to change all exhaust.
There are some options but are expensive.
