Edited: A little birdie told me it is now available for the coupes. I may pull the trigger today.
---------------------------------------------------

So, here's the part #
18 10 0 445 634 (coupe)
18 10 0 443 579 (sedan)
It's got to be available SOON, as on BMWUSA.com now, you can build your BMW with the option checked!

Someone post up when they can get ahold of one. I'll probably wait to see until Tischer can get it since they will likely have a good price (well, better than the oxygen gasping price on the BMW build page...hell, the Porsche factory performance exhaust for their cars is only like $300 more)

I'm wondering how close (in sound) the golf tee mod will come to this exhaust.

I know! I thought that myself. Well, since 29.2, my exhaust sounds loud as hell in first gear and louder in 2-6 than before 29.2. It'd be funny if the performance exhaust was quieter than golf tee or 29.2 cars. Well, not $1800 down the drain funny, but, ironic funny.

In all seriousness though, I believe the difference will become apparant at WOT. After all, golf tee, 29.2, or pre 29.2 stock, all go open-flap at WOT, and the performance exhaust will be louder (I'm assuming) at WOT. I bet at cruise, it incorporates the flap again (it better for that friggin $) and is pretty quiet, which is a nice thing IMHO.

not the best but all the money youre paying for it is going to a continued warranty. thats something id be content with

I don't think that exhaust is worth the money, at all.

+1. Someone locate a sound clip of this exhaust. I think I would have ordered it on my 335 if it was available last year.

but i think that exhaust is worth the warranty for all

Watch the performance exhaust just be them just doing the golf tee mod, changing the tips and install the new software.

I am trying to remember where I heard this from, but I heard that the construction material for the exhaust isn't all that great.

What are you trying to say? Did you mean to say, "I think the exhaust is worth the money because it is warrantied by BMW"...?

[Robmaster]

I think he means that if you blow you turbo;s or whatever, they won't blame the exhaust.

Well, that'd be a bit of a shock given the cost, and given that they have to warranty the part.

+1 I was surprised (pleasantly) at how good it sounded in that clip!

can you post the clip?

The stock exhaust sounds great at WOT. There is a local road warrior 335i, that tears around here locally. The moment he sees me he goes WOT. The sound is intoxicating. He is completely stock.

But he doesn't have the burble, I love that freaking burble!

If the 135 stock sounds like the 335 coupe the performance exhaust is a lot louder than I thought it would be.

On a side note, if BMW is offering a high flow performance exhaust doesn't this kind of weaken their argument to some extent on things like the golf tee mod and cat backs being grounds to deny warranty work. I know DP's are still fair game for denial and I'm kind of with them on that but, I've read a few posts on them giving people a hard time just for the golf tee mod which just seems like major BS.

there shouldnt be any software upgrade required for perfomance exhaust.

I just said that because people are saying 29.X is louder than other progmans due to revised wastegate duty cycles.

Besides that it was a joke.

added coupe part # to original post, since it differed from sedans
