so as a e90 guy gone e60 i was disappointed to see that the 535i didn't get as much attention compared to the 335i/135i
so i've been in communication with known e90/e92 companies regarding building an exhaust for the 535i .. so this thread is to gauge interest on who would want Custom Performance (CP-E) www.cp-e.com create one.
as far as i know only dinan and rpi. custom performance has made great products for the e90/e92 such as their ecu tune, downpipes, and exhaust .. and for me to have well known company AMS Performance (world's fastest evo) back up their products is enough selling point for me.
surely i won't be able to get it test fitted or what not as they are in Maryland .. but if there is enough interest maybe someone on here will be able to

big in the mazda scene as far i could remember .. ever since the N54 motor came out they've been a big part of the community over @ e90post.com. of course if you haven't driven a e90 or e92 u probably won't know them as well (www.cp-e.com) .. as i've said the e60 community isn't as big which sucks
like anything else...show us some #'s and you'll get more interest....a little more research will get you the same quality and proven gains with all of their products for all e60 models....
here's the RPI 535i exhaust info...

So some of us know RPI but not CP-E and vice versa. No big deal. The more options out there the better. If CP-E was able to produce an exhaust for the 535 with proven gains like dyno sheets then that's just better for the consumer.
That said, RPI has done that already so if you want something now that's already been proven to work, go with them.
