Great video very helpfull indeed, also appreciate the thouroughness of the install. I will install an MPE tomorrow on my 340i Touring, hence im here. Two additions to your video: to stop the rattle on the std. back box you just have to change out the spring clip, they loose tention over time which causes the rattle I've had the same on my previous car 435i it's well documented on these they do not only rattle when they are broken, vut also when tentionnis not enough. If you want to cut your exhaust its easier using a chain tubing cutter (pliers) insread of an agle grinder, as that will be always exactly straight without rough edges.
Interestingly I upgraded to a chain tubing cutter for doing a Skoda VRS, but I struggled a little so ended up nipping the last bit with a grinder anyway 🤣 it did make a much nearer cut though. Just clearing my shop and realised I still have the stock box for that 140i. Sadly the 140i was written off by the new owner 😭
Have a check in paragraph two of the video description (I can’t seem to copy and paste it into here for some reason) which gives part numbers for the spring that fails, and also for the full M-Performance exhaust system. I have a record of the individual parts somewhere if there is a specific bit you need a number for? 👍
I think they started fitting them mid 2018, so this car is about a year before the PPF as I understand, but that’s only from a bit of Googling - sadly the car has been sold so we can’t check anymore 😭
Great vid 👍🏼 i want to do this to mine
Go for it!

That is indeed very sad to hear!
Deleting both resonators after this is a must
Awesome and very helpful video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Cool! Would it be the same dimensions for the Remus?
Hey man, great video. Very informative. What are the part numbers please?

great video. now i know what the mechanics will have to do to my car! is this the later PPF / OPF M140i by any chance?

Where did you buy the exhaust from?
Straight from BMW - it’s an OEM upgrade part 👍
