The GTS Exhaust looks just like the MPE

While doing the break-in service last week, when they had my M4 ZCP lifted up to check for any damage before receiving my car, I happened to take a pic of my photo......

Now I came across an M4 GTS review and it looks exactly the same to me...

what do you think?

It looks pretty close to me with the exception of non-changeable polished tips.

Is this one titanium as well or is it steel? If the tips do a better job of filling out the bumper cutouts, I think I would rather have this version minus the cats.

do you mean the one I have or the GTS one?

I believe the MPE is also titanium but I got it with the Carbon Fiber tips rather than the titanium tips to go along with the CF Rear Diffusor

rear titanium muffler of the GTS looks similar to MPE but have a different internal design. the rest of the exhaust is stainless steel and near identical. the tuning obviously makes a difference in sounds as well.

well the technician at BMW Dubai who installed my MPE on my M4 Competition told me that he has also heard the M4 GTS Exhaust and it sounds very similar. Don't know how much I can believe that but judging from videos I've seen online, my doesn't sound so different.

I think the ZCP tune for the burbles and crackles on overrun made a huge difference

Can you link the cross section pictures, graphics, etc to show the differences?

The GTS version. Your MPE, like my MPE, leaves a good chunck of space between the diffuser and the tips compared to other exhaust.

Hey,

So, cut to the chase already!!

Will the GTS exhaust fit and work ("R-Delete" / O2 sensors?) with a stock "Competition Package" M4?

Cheers!
