At the same time, what’s happening under the skin needs to comply with all legal requirements. Within this framework, and to be sure of the most effective results, our engineers explore the science of psychoacoustics. This leads to even more emotionally rousing sound patterns, exploited to the full within the legal boundaries. GOOSEBUMPS And given the commitment that goes in to developing optimum sound, it’s only logical that BMW M Performance exhaust systems are made FOR THE EARS. of particularly durable materials.
