My Ride: 2006 Black on Black 530xi. NAV, Prem, Cold weath...
I am going to be changing my exhaust. I am thinking about getting the mtech rear bumper and get quad exhaust. what sounds the best? and is there any difference between a 530i and 530xi exhaust system?? I have the xi and when I was looking at systems most places just say i for all the cars. I like the sound to be throaty and not to "honda civic" sounding 
Any help would be amazing! Thanks

I don't have any personal experience I can imagine everyone on this forum is going to recommend the RPi exhaust.

definitely recommend the RPi. no sense in going quad if you're going to lose power IMHO.

The only reason that I was going quad is because there is an opening for it. and I want it filled in

Thanks for the info so far! does anyone know if it is the same between 530i and 530xi???
Just love how they look. I have it on my 3 series. With Quads will be custom. 
But it well worth it..
