How come your not driving your 5 series?

Your exhaust is taking a long time to arrive. I know what that feels like. My car isn't arriving till about Christmas time!

Do you want your exhaust to be really loud? If you have the loud exhaust, removing the resonator will make your exhaust even louder. Plus removing the resonator may cause droning, which is really irritating.

Having 20" wheels causes that problem. Slow and careful driving. That's why 19" wheels make more sense. A little less worry. In Korea, if you put on 20" inch wheels, you'd probably damage them on the way home after mounting on your car!

Are they sending you that muffler by sea and ground??? It's like taking forever...

How long ago did you order it? It seems like several weeks now.

One more week and you'll have the sound to make the looks of the car! Have you decided whether you are going to remove the resonator or not?

By having 20" wheels, you're gonna be driving like my grandma! LOL I've been driving around with the 166 (19") and going even faster than with my old 17" -- all fine. No problems whatsoever and I am really glad I went this way instead of modular 20"s.... or I'd be on this forum bitching about how bad the roads are and how flimsy/lousy modulars are... LOL
