Does the 135's PE sound like the 335's PE?

My buddy just had the PE installed on his 335 and it sounds amazing! Just wondering if the 135's sounds the same?

If we're comparing N54 135i to N54 335i or N55 to N55 then yes the 135i sounds around the same if not a little louder with the resonator-delete installed, perhaps due to smaller overall sound deadening (only one rear silencer) or short path for the exhaust flow/sound to exit. The e92/93 doesn't have a midpipe resonator so if you were to just fit the axle-back part his 335i would sound louder/better. If we're comparing N54 135i to N55 335i then the 335i will always sound better as it's missing the mid-cats; applies vice versa of course unless either N54 car had N55 midpipes installed.

E90 335i does have a midpipe resonator but I am not sure the PE came with a resonator delete? If not the 135i PE would sound roughly the same with axle-back only or a lot louder and more aggressive with the resonator delete.

Don't forget that the 335i spilts the exhaust flow all the way down the car into two large rear silencers where as the 135i merges the exhaust flow just before the rear axle into one silencer roughly equal in size to one of the 335i's. That accounts for a small sound difference but not much, they are both a straight through design.
