I legit live like an hour up the road from um and tried to offer up my whip for testing 😉 and when they said they already had one coming there went my shot at a discounted exhaust lol In all seriousness, I can't wait to see what / if anything transfers over from the 3 series

Can't wait to see what they come up with. I cant wait to change out the exhaust to get rid of the ugly stock exhaust.

I heard valvetronic has one in the works as well. Idk what is confirmed on that but at least there will be options. I just want the adjustable springs from Dinan.

Odd decision. The G42 is going to be quite popular with enthusiasts who love to mod. It's a short wheelbase AWD B58 car, seems like a sure shot.

I know you guys just got the car but usually how long would it take you guys to figure out if the exhaust system needs to be designed from scratch or if a different exhaust can be carried over?

Almost gauranteed it won't be a direct swap over from the M340i. The can will likely be the same but the rest of the geometry will have to be tweaked a bit. Will know for sure within the first couple weeks though after the car is broken in, evaluated, and scanned.

UPDATE: Got our first detailed look at the exhaust this morning prior to scanning. Just on measurements alone there are some subtle, albeit very challenging, differences that will need to be addressed so it will be a new system on the M240i.

AWE primarily does exhaust systems right? Not tunes. They probably dont think a lot of people are going to buy a $3k exhaust for a $55k car.

Excited to have Dinan on board.

Any thoughts on the Dinantronics sports performance tuner? I'm a first time BMW owner. $250 for up to a 40hp increase seems to good to be true…

Had it, was ok on my X2M35i but I wanted a visual and protection so I went with JB4.

Waiting to see what S58 product they are going to come out with.

Nice! So I'm assuming other brand intakes should fit as well such as bms
