help finding exhaust for 2023 BMW 230i G42

I recently got a 230i and I have been searching through every corner of the internet trying to find an exhaust for this car and cannot find one. im also not sure which sites are reputable/safe. If anyone has advice on where to look, or also where I can go in Austin to get an exhaust for this car built, it would be greatly appreciated.

I think it is slim pickings at the moment, other than the BMW M Performance exhaust. Here's a link.

However, I'm sure, Remus, Milltek, AWE and the like are most likely working on some systems.

It'll be some time for an AWE option.

Apparently it's on their radar but not enough demand currently, see below.

One option I was surprised to find was Supersprint, but just like all their other offerings... not cheap. https://www.supersprint.com/ww-en/sp...-230i-b46.aspx

Seems like a decent system, not as deep as the MPE, but still good! Did you end up going with them or another system? And did you get a quote for their setup?

I'd wait until more companies start making exhausts for your car (Dinan, AWE, Active Autowerke & REMUS).

Until then, get a downpipe to improve the sound.

which MPE are you referring to? do you think the one from BMW is better than this one from DCE? i feel the fact that the DCE exhaust is Valvetronic is a pretty big selling point for me. honestly a little disappointed in the description that BMW provides for their after market products: no sound sample or technical details.

Could you post a sound clip? I’ve been debating if I should get it, but want to hear it.

Damn, sounds so good. Was it expensive upgrade?
