Question M performance exhaust, what do you think?

Dealer said it will gain 7% more power, is that true?

I don't think the exhaust matters much for the power of a 116i. The performance is limited in the software mapping. It will perhaps sound 7 percent more powerful, but I think the actual gain is very close to zero.

As far as I know there is no M-performance exhaust for the 116i.

A combination of a larger bore exhaust system (125i M Performance) and a engine remap will give your 116i more power and likely a better sound.
I also doubt that any part upgrade of the exhaust system will give any real benefit to power delivery. It will probably only give it a better exhaust note.
