i have the EXACT same magnaflow on my ride and i love it! has a nice rumble at idle and an even nicer purrr when accelerating. i'm not gonna lie, there is some cabin noise but not enough to disturb a call on BT while at highway speeds.

my biggest test was "the wife"! we went for a drive, both local and highway, and she did not say a word!!! not sure if you're a married man, but for those of us who are....this was a huge test!! lol

Macfly, can u provide us with some Sound clips? and how much did it cost u?

Notice that i always ask for sound clips, i just love the sound of ROARS

considering getting one for my 520i. would it rumble with a small 2.2l I6??
