Q:N20 with N55 (235i) exhaust - real difference

Hey guys!
After i'll take delivery of my N20 (220i) 2er later this year, I'm considering switching to stock 35i muffler. My question is - is there any owner of 20i/28i with muffler swapped to stock 35i, not MPE?
Is there a hudge difference? For example burbeling when down shifting or crackles while up shifting?

Thanks!

Michal

220 with a stock M135i exhaust and resonator deleted. Tiny bit louder than stock but not loud at all, really.

Pretty sure this vid was before I removed the resonator:

Thank you Icy J!
I have seen this videos many times before and I really like sound of your current setup (if you haven't swaped it again :P). That sounds brutal but a bit over budget for me right now.

Haha, I think it's still not loud enough right now thinking about getting a downpipe too...

Two more vids for your reference, both with stock M135 exhaust/resonator delete


^ see 1:01 for acceleration

Wow that's what I'm looking for! Have you seen the mod few guys did at F30 forum with the mufflers (based on E9X M3)?

I'm thinking about doing this is in the future. It seems to be basicly not that visible muffler delete mod .
