My Ride: 06' 550i
The 550 got fitted for the new exhaust by RPi. Also had them throw in the BMW filter and scoop.
I must say that the exhaust has been great. Tone at idle is a nice rumble and barely noticeable from inside the car with windows up. Around 2000-2500 RPM's the deep throaty rumble is great. I've had quite a few onlookers already. The car feels much smoother during acceleration with the scoop and exhaust. It also screams like a bat out of hell when you go full throttle.
Excellent work by RPi and Eloy...thanks again guys. I definitely recommend for you 550 owners out there.
