Do you have any pics of underneath the right side where the 2nd tips are? Are they just a wrap around pipe into two tips or is there a 2nd muffler?? Looks great. Really making me want to do this to my 550. Any probs? How much louder outside the car and how much louder inside the car with the new exhaust?
Thx

the sound is exactly what i wanted, deep and loud enough for me. outside - it's not as loud as my magnaflow and i even deleted the square resonator. inside the car with the windows up, the same thing...much quieter than the magnaflow.

Quy, here you go bud. it's been exactly a week since i've had the quad set up and it's settling quite nicely...now that's its nice and "marinated"! many would say it's "too quiet", but i'm really happy with it. keep in mind that this is my daily and did not want my cabin to be overwhelmed with my exhaust sound & rumble. i've definately have felt a big performance upgrade, especially now it's had a chance to settle.
here are some clips! sorry, no clips w/the windows down. i just got a car wash and didn't want to roll the windows down - sorry!

Now that, my friend, is the PERFECT note and sound level for that very nicely modded e60. At idle, most cars exhaust will sound similar to most people. But upon reving and acceleration, the exhaust sound note becomes very unique . . . very refine . . very BMW engine. In my opinion, the exhaust note matches well with the i6 TT performance and e60 styling. Congrats.

Hey MacFly,
In regards to your powder coated tips....I like! What tips are they or were they before powder-coating? Also, do you remember what size (inlet and outlet) diameter? I am looking into the Magnaflow Exhaust and would end up getting chrome tips, but then would get the tips powder coated. My 550 has black tips stock and I do like the black look more than chrome.
The muffler shop I have been to doesn't want (or says they won't be able to) to install a 2nd muffler on passenger side because of space limitations. They are wanting to install a muffler where the center resonator is and then run exhaust to each side. I will have to purchase tips and then get a shop to powder coat like you did.
Good Taste!

each tip comes seperately, so they have to manually staggered them when welding on. very precise work, so make sure you go to a very patient muffler shop. and make sure you go there with your diffuser installed already.

Hey thanks. They told me to make sure the diffuser is installed first. I am interested in the tips. Is there a contact guy at AAA? I may try and give them a call. I wish I lived in Cali (except for cost of living) b/c you guys have access to all the good shops/tuners. Not to mention weather!
