It has had the baffles removed and the canister internals redirected. I installed this unit on my 1M some time ago, hooked up to the N55 mids. It was actually quieter than my OEM unmodified axle back.. I removed it after a couple of hours, so I can understand why Stu is not 100% happy with the exhaust tone. The quad install and mod on the other hand is awesome and if I had a 135i, would do this in a heart beat as it looks awesome and OEM. |

The 135i charcoal canister bolts up to the 1M battery box, but you do need to disassemble the pipes and fittings, relocate and shorten them then reassemble the pipe work to the canister and reinstall.
It all looks OEM when done. |

If this was available in Melbourne I'd gladly give up my N55 135i and my wallet to have it done. If the exhaust note is as aggressive as the BMW 135i performance exhaust, I'd be all over it.

i like the choice of outer quads rather than inner quads too. accentuates the cars width much better.

The Evap canister itself is the same on the 1M and 135i. We needed 1M Evap canister hoses to connect to the relocated position of the canister. The hoses are more like tubes which do not flex much and you risk cracking or pinching off the flow if you bend them. Do you guys even have to have the Evap canister in Australia? I know a lot of regions do not. Everyone should try to get slek or some small CF manufacturer to make a diffuser that can accommodate the 1m exhaust and bolt up to an MSport bumper. |

If you can find a cheaper diffuser it'll be cheaper again. |

There's another thread like this over in the main section of this forum:
http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=818330 Looks pretty similar setup to yours Stu. It goes into some detail about battery leads and steam pipes as well. |

Regardless, whether 2 or 3, you would need someone to fabricate some kind of custom rear diffuser and I don't think they make centre exhaust diffusers yet. |
