Do Aus Delivered M3/M4 come with charcoal filters

Just wondering if anyone can tell me if our cars are delivered with charcoal filters on top of the air filters?

The reason I ask is that I'm wanting to either buy a BMS intake or replace the air filters for more induction noise.... Obviously the BMS intake will be louder but from reports, it seems as though removing the charcoal filter and replacing the air filters gives a marginal increase in induction sound.

Can anyone give some feedback or first experience on intake vs replacing the air filters?

Yep.

No charcoal filters in Oz.

I fitted BMC filters and there was only a slight increase in noise with the windows down.
