My Ride: 04' 545i
Default

The exhaust it self was completely assembled and installed by Magnaflow at their R&D warehouse here in CA. They didn't have an application for 2004-2005 BMW 545i's (N62B44 engines) so i gladly let them use my car for a mockup. I'm not sure when they are going to release it for distribution but as of now i guess I'm the only person with a full cat back from Magnaflow The fabricator there told me they had a cat back for this year only it was for a quad exit set up, mine is single side exit.

That sounds very nice! I thought those tips looked familiar, I just installed a catback magnaflow exhaust for my 08 535i and I love it!

Good to hear, I am seriously considering having the same one put on my 08 535i. Did you do the install yourself or have it done at a shop?
do you feel like it gave you some extra power, or just a better tone?

Dropped the car off Monday just picked it up today and let me tell you WOW! what a difference. Granted there is some droning at low speeds but noting that is unbearable, I'll post video of the sound soon.. for now here are some pictures. On another note I picked up my Bilsteins and Pro Kit today as well .. Going to be a busy weekend
Which Bilsteins did you get? The Sports?
