I had the M performance exhaust system in mine. I love it, specially when the engine is cold.

All the exhaust systems I've heard for the M235i sound good. I opted for the M Performance Exhaust.

I'm think I'm going to go with meisterschaft... I like the fact that I can quiet it down if I want to (electronic valve)... I just hope it's aggressive and loud enough with the valves open! Too many choices

Muffler delete + Resonator delete + Catless DP = exactly what you're looking for and you can design the exhaust how you want it for a fraction of what any of these other exhausts cost!

Ha ha ! You mean I can just drive without any exhaust at all ?
I did have a special exhaust made for my Lotus Elise by a garage here in France for € 1500. It's brilliant.

If I was going to go with an MPE (I might instead) do more research and go this route. There were several examples with stock and race (?) DP that seemed to give a nice boost. Doesn't seem environmentally responsible to go catless.

Quick question:
1) I believe a different DP may throw an error code due to the reduced restriction?
2) Is this true, and if so, I would image this would then void the warranty?

I'm a big fan of Meisterschaft, I've installed their Turbo Back Catless DP. Definitely a lot more gurgling and popping. Just waiting to pull the trigger on the Super GT w/ 2x102mm Tips and optional AR pipe. $2845 ouch.

Lightweight Performance Titanium Exhaust

The Manhart Race exhaust is pretty sick too, but it`s not legal in Germany since it`s too loud!

It's not. Listed at $1233 uninstalled on their site now. $650? That's almost 50% off. How did you swing that? If I could buy it for that, I'd be purchasing it right now!

I called and asked for their best price on it. This was back in August though and I know that people said it had gone up a little bit in price. I don't know what it currently is though.

I have a MPE with shifteck downpipes and it sounds amazing. Its not too loud when you have your windows up but once there down, it sounds like music especially when you put it into sport or sport +.
