It depends of the year of the car. The first productions only had a cat, so it is possible to delete. Then BMW added diesel particle filters (DPF) that are much more complexed and more difficult to delete. Still possible but you need to ruin your +1500? DPF. After cat or DPF delete you will see black smoke in your rear mirror at wot.
