What about the loudness of RPi? I do frequent traveling on interstates, and I don't wanna get sick of it. Any thoughts, guys?

My Ride: 2007 550i Titanium Grey Metallic - 6 Speed Manual, Sport Suspension, Premium, Cold Weather, Navigation, Shades, L7 Sound
I have been looking for a while myself and I think that going down to the tri-meet I should be able to hear the rpi and what it sounds like. Will anyone be there with a dinan on a 550?

Under 2k RPMs (stop and go city driving), the RPI drones like a motorboat (loud). At cruising speed on the highway however, you can barely hear it at all. Overall, the RPI is not subtle at all.. and it WILL turn heads.

Anyone who says the RPI doesn't drone is either deaf, or lying to you ;-)

Thanx for the feedback btw

So yeah, if low-key is what you're after, I'd look elsewhere.

I actually really like my RPI exhaust... but with that said- if I were in a career where I would need to chauffeur clients or other professionals around, I would have taken it off long ago. My girlfriend and my mother both can't stand it either.
