He happens to have a friend with another new M3 Competition who recently modified his car by installing an Armytrix exhaust. Not only that, but he also took out the OPF and mid-silencers, resulting in a raw exhaust note.<\/p>\n<p>Since Europe has some of the strictest regulations regarding emissions, the M3 sold on the Old Continent has a gasoline particulate filter that muffles the noise. That\u2019s not necessarily a problem on a regular car without sporty aspirations, but when you\u2019re paying top money for an inline-six engine, you want it to sound as natural as possible, without any interferences.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-403904\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-830x467.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M3 Competition Test Drive 40 of 40 830x467\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-830x467.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-1820x1024.jpg 1820w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M3 Competition Test Drive 40 of 40 830x467\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-403904\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20467%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-830x467.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M3 Competition Test Drive 40 of 40 830x467\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-830x467.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-1820x1024.jpg 1820w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/BMW-M3-Competition-Test-Drive-40-of-40.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M3 Competition Test Drive 40 of 40 830x467\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s what the owner of this murdered-out M3 had in mind and the result is quite fitting for the S58 unit. The Armytrix sounds more aggressive than the standard setup, which some have criticized for being too bland and muted for a sports sedan equipped with a twin-turbo 3.0-liter engine. Perhaps hotter versions of the M3 will deliver a better soundtrack, namely the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2021\/10\/27\/2023-bmw-m3-cs-m4-cs-automatic-all-wheel-drive\/\">CS<\/a> and other spicy derivatives BMW might be working on for later in the car\u2019s life cycle.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, you can count on tuning shops to address the noise issue and give the M3 a suitable exhaust note as Armytrix has done with this Competition model.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"@ARMYTRIX 200 CELL DOWNPIPES for BMW M3 G80 Competition is a MUST HAVE! by AutoTopNL\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LrdGIdtBMwQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LrdGIdtBMwQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AutoTopNL \/ YouTube<\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content] Buying a new BMW M3 (G80) gives you the possibility to either stick to the standard exhaust or choose the optional M Performance setup with stacked tips mounted near the center of the rear bumper.
