My Ride: 06 650i Sport/ Premium PKG PDC PREMUIM SOUND L7
I'm starting to look into exhaust and would appreciate any advice... I have a 2006 650i. I'm debating between a full exhaust system vs. mufflers and tips.
1. Am I going to see a dramatic change in performance if I go for the full exhaust?
2. What is the difference in sound between the two.. can I accomplish that same sound with just mufflers?
Also need to start narrowing down my options. Looks like other members like magnaflow, RPI and supersprint? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

magnaflow mufflers, all resonators deleted, xpipe. You can probably get this done for under $500, tips and other customizations on top...

I have Supersprint with X-pipe.
In the beginning wasn't happy with it. Because I wanted it to be not too loud, I got the X-pipe with resonators.
Than I deleted the resonators from the X-pipe and now I'm very happy with this set-up.

tbal, do you have a pic of the exhaust taken from the underside?
Like so......
BTW: this is with the X-pipe resonator still in place
