Beautiful piece for sure! Not a lot of performance gain for the money though, unless you're already FBO. You do get the added weight benefit and sound though. I'm guessing this will likely sound wonderful with downpipes! Whoever purchases needs to put up some video of drive-bys so we can hear it in action.

Sounds is the primary reason why people buy exhaust, performance not so much.

It's great there is a new GB as they stopped making this. The 535i RPi exhausts is still one of my favorite mods. Subtle, classy sounds that draws attention. Loud primal growl at the 3K+ rpm. Sheds almost 50% of weight over the OEM (yes, weighed this myself). And there is power gain to be had too! Truely an amazing attribute for the N54 engine.

Since this is for an I6, albeit turbocharged.... would it work well for a naturally aspirated i6? The M54B30 engine on a 530?
