@mazekid15 did you happen to notice any performance increase after adding the exhaust or was it limited to the new note? Just not sure if your downpipes were already giving you the max flow/min turbo spool up.

Looks like a pretty amazing exhaust, only thing is it doesn't really explain if it is a catback exhaust or axle-back exhaust.

To install you cut the stock exhaust part way along the rear and clamp the BnB onto that.

I'm not an expert but do you really get much (if any?) performance gain from an axle back exhaust? I believe the Dinan exhaust from the 535xi is an axle back and they claim 5-7 HP gain.. so I guess it's possible?
