Well, decided to make a couple of 5 min videos on the Magnaflow exhaust now that I have put about 1500 miles on it and broken the sound in. I really love the tone. The first video is somewhat faster speed and the second is slow drive-bys. Hope you enjoy.

Nice.
So, is this an added on magnaflow muffler - or is it the magnaflow system (part # 16551)

Years ago, I had a magnaflow catback system on a 1996 Cobra that was impressive and I wondered if their part for the 530i lived up to the same standards I experienced then... but I've never seen anyone with this kit.
Thanks -

Thanks. I think with any exhaust you're going to have some drone at that 2500-2900 rpm range but nothing that I've experienced that has annoyed me. I think it depends who your installer is and very important they weld it on properly and mount it properly to prevent droning. The shop I used did a great job. Yes, you can hear it in the cabin -- but you'll learn to love it. All I got installed was the Magnaflow section III axle-back for like $140 and another $100 for install.
