What is the best M2C exhaust that sounds like N55 M2 ?
Bought a 2020 M2C brand new build Today.
I almost chose the M2 18 lci just for the sound, but had a great deal on 2020 M2C . Figured there would be an exhaust in the near future that would sound Deep Lionish like the n55 I loved. Anyone know what I'm looking for? I don't thing the m performance exhaust would do it. |

The N55 has 6 cylinders per turbo, the S55 has 3. It's just not going to sound the same.

Was in the same boat. Coming from a heavily modded 17 M2 and was on the fence on ordering the competition just because of the sound alone. There's enough out there to deepen the tone of the exhaust note like eismann exhaust and or mid pipe like AA has.

OP congrats on the purchase. Hard to turn down that deal and the Comp is a great performer for certain. My suggestion would be to go with a fabspeed sport cat downpipe and the akrapovic exhaust. It's not going to ever be the N55 sound, but it will sound very nice. The only thing you are losing with the comp is sound...everything else is as good if not superior to the LCI M2, except for maybe the weird single piece kidney grill.

Like mentioned, go the AA midpipe or wait to hear the newly released MPE (but prepare your wallet, oof). I went AA midpipe and it definitely improved things. Won't sound as good as the OG, but it's better than stock for sure.

Checkout this video, just ignore the Supersprint exhaust (its on an M2 N55)

To make an M2C sound like an M2 the only solution is an engine swap
After driving the competition I think you won't worry anymore about the sound |

The AA signature sounds pretty deep. Especially when paired with a downpipe. Have a listen to some of BAN M2C's video's. He did quite a few vid's and it's pretty consistent.

Agreed, the M2C sounds great stock.
