I tried to call the listed number. No one answered during business hours and there is no voice mail.

I actually came across this magnaflow on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magnaflow-Ca...#ht_1332wt_969

This is pretty much exactly what I had in mind and would want

I've seen the same exhaust on ebay for $650, forgot which ebay vendor it was tho.

Very interested for 2008 535xi +1

I believe its the same vendor because I saw they had one for about $700 and it states to make an offer of up to 25% off which would be around the $650 price range, it can very well be the same vendor.

Has anyone tried this exhaust system?? Its a reasonable price for a magnaflow, can probably just put nicer tips on there if anything

I went with Umnitza and yes it does Branch off to the driver side. However its not purely cosmetic as the its basically 4 holes coming out of one can. 3 for exhaust out one for exhaust in. I did remove my secondary cat and my resonators and am running stock downpipes, the car does feel more powerful and climbs into rom ranges much more easier how ever factory tune holds it back.

I just got this Magnaflow installed on my 08 535i 4 days ago. I paid $890 plus $300 to install and pre/post dyno. Yes I realize a dyno directly after install without giving the ecu time to adjust may not be optimal numbers, but I plan to take it back again after breaking and after I get CobbAP. The numbers at peak were +3hp and + 6tq, but I see an overall smoother curve post install, and also some areas where the increase is more than at peak.. The sound is much louder than stock(which is a good thing!), but has a pretty substantial drone around 2k on the highway( not such a good thing)
Thanks to xclone's advice, (a member here and elsewhere) I'm looking for the 2k drone to smooth off after the breakin. I will say that the sound at startup,idle and fast acceleration is really nice, and the more I drive it the more I enjoy the tone. Especially in the parking garage today at work. I couldnt wipe the grin off my face.

Nice to hear from someone who purchased it and actually got the numbers on it if you get a chance any time a video and pictures of the tips would be great!!

How was the fitment? Any adjustments?

No fitment issues to my knowledge. The Speed shop that did the install has a Facebook page where they posted 4 or 5 pictures during the install. Here is one that shows the tips.

I will get one of a closeup next time I wash my car

I am also attaching a pic of the dyno sheet.
