Installed MPE
Finally got around to installing the M Performance Exhaust (MPE) I had previously ordered for my new 2020 M240i when I learned MPE was not going to be a port-installed option.
The install was straightforward. AutoZone and O’Reilly both have free “lend” programs that include a tailpipe cutter. Picked up one of these pipe cutters yesterday and attempted to use it today. It made a nice mark in the exhaust pipe, but was starting to bend the pipe rather than cutting it. Pulled out my reciprocating saw and was able to make a clean cut in 30 seconds using the mark made by the pipe cutter. After cutting the pipe, everything else was simply bolt-on. Very easy and the whole job was about 40 minutes. The MPE sounds great, lovely in fact. It’s not loud, but sounds notably more aggressive than the stock exhaust. Previously, I had installed the MP rear diffuser. The MPE tips look much better than the stock exhaust tips with this diffuser. Based on my initial experience, I highly recommend this upgrade. More updates to come. |

Ordered mine on Wednesday and just took the easy way out on the install by scheduling it to be done at my next service a week from Monday. Can't wait to liven up the sound of the car a little more!

I've now crossed over 1K and the MPE sounds particularly nice at WOT.

1,000 miles I would assume.

I've noticed no audible change from 2 miles to 2500 miles on my 19 M performance. To quiet for me.

I agree, after eliminating fake engine noise my car was whisper quiet unless all the windows down.
After adding the MPE, it sounds so amazing. Perfect sound to my ears. |

My 2016 M235i N55 engine sounded great with the MPE. I wonder why the B58 can't sound as nice? Thank you for your input. Mike |

I have MPE on my 18' M240 and I really enjoy the exhaust! Especially when I get on the throttle and the little burbles and crackles on overruns. However, I also drove a 440i with MPE for a few days and I found that the MPE on the 440i sounded better than on my M240...
