Did some fly bys in front of the alamodome overpass. This is the closest thing to a tunnel San Antonio has. :thumbsdown:
My friend was too far away by the time I got close to him I had to brake. Next time he will be closer.
Hope you guys enjoy Leave me comments on my video page please!

Sound mean. This the RDsport drone around the 1500-2100 rpm like the other aftermarket exhaust?

nice!!!!!! i love the sound, it sounds deep!! how does it sound at high rpms? i am thinking of getting this quad setup but my only concern is droning. I live in San Francisco, where hills are everywhere. Have you tried driving hills? how's the droning on hills? I'm looking to keep the droning to a minimal.

Well im always in the car so i never get to hear the exhaust outside of the car. i need to get someone to drive my car so i can hear it.
in the car it sounds great!

ive been to san fran twice. i would love to drive around hills. but i dont know what you like.

for droning i never notice. ive had aftermarket exhaust on all my cars. so i couldnt help you with that. cause i always love to hear my exhaust
if you are concerned with droning then i wouldnt recommend you getting any aftermarket exhaust. because i think every exhaust drones.
some more than others of course. and if you live in san fran your exhaust will be working overtime.

thanks for the comment and GL with you decision

Thanks. Got the idea for the setup straight from you.
Im just glad AFE came out with a intake for the 545i so i didnt have to shoehorn that 550i intake like you did
