Modification Loud Backfire sound from Sebring Z4 xos

Hi all, I'll be sending the z4 to the tuners shortly for regular servicing and coilovers so before that I just want to check if this loud backfire (sounds quite good like thunder actually lol) from a sebring xos is normal, as in the sound made after releasing the gas pedal is normal for this brand. Noticable only if top is down.

Thanks!

Re: Loud Backfire sound from Sebring Z4 xos

Wah lou why go off topic so fast lol.. seriously I think backfire is not too healthy for the car in long run something like not enuff combustion for the fuel or fuel mixture too rich or something right, aiya nvm I go ask WS.

Ok where's the BBQ..

It's normal.

Even on the stock Z4 you will hear backfire, just not as pronounced.
