F44 exhaust?

I just recently picked up a 2020 m235i (first time owning a bmw) and the stock exhaust sounds great but I want to give it a lil more sound. I’ve been looking online and can’t seem to find very many options when it comes to getting a full exhaust system in the US. I’ve been thinking about doing a rear box delete or a res delete to give it that little extra sound but am worried about throwing CEL. advice?

The only thing throwing a CEL will be if you get a catless downpipe. You can tune that out though. Anything else won't mess with the CEL.

I got a rear box delete and twin chromes tips done at a local specialist, kept the original valves too for normal driving, sounds sweet in Comfort, epic in Sport and no drone at all in Eco Pro. £650.

I’ve got an appointment with a local exhaust shop to get a quote for a box delete since that’s what I’m thinking i’m going to end up doing. Do you have any videos of the sound? I’d love to hear it.

I have but its on my phone and the car is static so it doesn't sound anywhere near as good as when its driving, there's also a lot of rev hang as i'm just parked up pressing the accelerator peddle.

Just find a good reliable exhaust shop and ask for quote on muffler and res delete. Mine sounds amazing and i get a lot of looks and compliments on it
