Hi Guys,

After much debating and saving I finally got my RPI Exhaust for my 545i. The install was easy and pretty straight forward and didn't have any exhaust leaks or anything. The car has been getting faster and faster by the day. It's perfect quiet when it needs to be (idle and freeways) and loud when you jump on it.

Much thanks to Michael over at Acute Performance who shipped the exhaust in 3 days as promised. Here is a link a day after the install. Now i'ts either a CHIP or Throttle body!!!

Hi Triet545,

You mentioned that the inside of the car is quite at idle and on the freeways. As far as the inside is concerned it's probably a little louder than stock and can you have a conversation or listen to music comfortably? It's also my understanding that you hear a low pitch hum on the freeway. What's you opinion?

Thanks,
