What if you want the car to be louder, sound closer to the m5 what kind of quad setup is right for that?

geez, sadly no one really answered the OP's initial question......
i had a set of dummy tips put on the right side after i put on an M5 bumper because i was still deciding on what exhaust i ultimately wanted to put on....
didn't really matter to me that it didn't "smoke" when the temp was cold, as most people don't even notice and surprisingly enough, some cars only smoke when warming up on one side too.....jusy a fyi, look at your 550i exhaust, only one side of the 2 exhaust tips will smoke when the temp is cold.....
find some tips online or at a muffler shop. take it into a muffler shop if you decide to the former. they'll probably add a hanger to hang the tips from and voila, a non functional quad set up. very simply and shouldn't cost much, tips at 20-40 with install of maybe 30-50 bucks. good luck man.
