I have it, don't see any benefits not sure if there are any gains, will find out when I dyno this month if there's any (i doubt it).
Going to sell it and just stick with a AFE Pro Dry drop-in filter

The few times is when you press throttle 50-75% quick and let off, otherwise 0 sound.

Definitely not, M40 already comes with a Sport Exhaust tuned from factory I'd be silly to touch the exhaust. Want it louder? Get Downpipes and you can control from the sound in driving modes

I thought about getting a M Performance exhaust, but it's so expensive.
Which downpipes do you recommend?

I think you (we) already have the M-Performance exhaust, no?

Allow me an unrelated question: Do you feel a lot of difference in the different modes (Econo, Comfort, Sport and Sport+) when it comes to the "Chassis" only? The difference in engine response is significant, but for the life of me, I don't feel any difference in the suspension between the modes. Yes, I am aware of the Drivetrain and Chassis options selectable in iDrive. Anyone?

But I do feel difference in comfort and Sport+ mode, both engine response and suspension.

Yes!
If you want more sound, get resonator delete

Have you heard a M40i with the resonator deleted? I just picked up my M40i a few days ago and contemplating removing the resonator, but hesitant as I do not want any drone or rasp.
