Hey guys. I'm considering getting a 2013 335i xDrive M Sport and turning it into my own kind of AWD M3. I've been trying to figure out what kind if exhaust options would work best for the build. I live in Massachusetts and I'd like to keep things simple and legal so no catless DPs.

I was thinking something like a VRSF catted downpipe and a muffler delete, but I can't really find quality videos of how that actually sounds. You know how it works - I'd like it to actually sound nice but not be deafening, especially on a cold start. I've head videos of the n54 with catless and it sounds like a tractor in my opinion. Do any of you guys in this fine community have this setup and care to share how it sounds? Or maybe even something that would be better? Much appreciated!

Edit: I also plan on doing some Stage 2 tuning so something like a dp is kind of necessary, right?
