I'm sorry, that sounds like an Agco tractor

Or a last-gen Audi TT. Sounds better opened up, but by god, if I had to listen to that agricultural idle, I'd put a harrow on it and put it to work.

It must sound better in real life, but the N55 with this exhaust seems to lack refinement. Much prefer the N54 sound with a CPe exhaust.

This.

It definitely sounds like a truck in that video.

This sounds amazing!! Can hear the turbo spooling up and down constantly, and love the growl/distorted air. I want this exhaust like yesterday!!!!

This is intoxicating! I can't stop listening to it mated to an N55 engine...I know what this means - time for exhaust! I'll be ordering this in a week

Stock for stock and side by side the 135i is definitely louder. My buddy at work has a 335xi and his exhaust is noticeably quieter (according to both of us, no bias).

I'd love to really hear that 135 sing...

Instead of taking it up the hill, around, and back, why not launch that sucker on to the 85, and let us hear you run it through a few gears.

Good price, by the way!

N55!!!

if the perf exhaust sounds this good... i can only imagine aftermarket like cp-e sounding even better!

i personally like louder and the N54 even with aftermarket was just not cutting it for me... now don't get me wrong because the N54 was not bad, but just not badass enough like the N55! great improvement!

I would really like to hear this with a DCT, really leaning toward getting it and ordering from the US. Is this exhaust bolt on?

Not sure how much DCT changes the sound, but I will attest that my 135 DCT with this exhaust sounds awesome. Not bolt on: a certain section must be cut - someone here can chime in on the specifics (or a quick search).
