435i Want to make my MPE louder

Hey guys.. I have a 2015 435i xDrive with M Performance exhaust and MPPK. It's currently stored for winter but I want to start looking at what I can do to the MPE to extract more sound from it and get louder burbles obviously (Cause we all need louder burbles in our life . Any help would be appreciated thanks

Yes.

I have Fabspeed/MPE.
No CEL & I wouldn't want it any louder.

If you're looking for obnoxious noise, you won't be satisfied.
If that's what you're looking for just go to a cheap muffler shop and have them run a straight pipe.

I’ve heard a lot about this setup it’s what I’m leaning towards. But what do you do about the CEL? Do you get one?

No, just the CEL for cat.

I have a friend for that NY allows for 1 monitor in not ready status but I haven't had the chance to test it out myself.

Delete your resonator depending on how long you're gonna wait for the DP.

I paid 100 and if you want to put another one back on it'll be another $100 to buy the resonator Im guessing.

I did yeah, cold start will be louder, so be ready for that, burbles up in volume, and 3-5k rpm got louder. But what do you expect... you're removing resistance in the pipes . But then I wanted it louder so I got a catless DP on top

Now it's a little too loud, but the tone is beautiful and exotic to me. I'm gonna enjoy it for a while before getting a catted DP
