I wanna pull the trigger and get mtech front and sides. i love the m5 rear but im not so sure of the stock exhaust setup (530i) on the m5 rear which is obviously made to allow quad exhaust. i guess the safe way to go is with the mtech rear but im not really a huge fan. any thoughts?

i dont want an aftermarket exhaust nor do i want to spend more money then i have to. figured you guys would point me in the right direction before i buy. thanks!

get magnaflow exhaust and make custom quad... sounds good and will be roughly 400-500 installed...

aftermarket exhausts are better ... rpi is the best but no quad .....

remus is too quite and overpriced...

so go with magnaflow...

stock exhaust was giving me a problem before with rpm dropping and as soon as i got rid of it no more problem...

i can do 400-500 it sounds good tho? how do i go about going th ecustom magnaflow route? i dont really want it to be loud unless it sounds real nice. im not a fan of raspy sounding exhausts and would rather have it quiet.

+1 for a custom setup if you are going to go with quads

$400-500 for custom quad exhaust and i would still need to buy a quad diffuser which is believe is in the $400-500 range as well. looking at $800-$1000.00 to do a quad exhaust & diffuser setup??

You cannot.

In any case, you need to mod the final part.

You cant do an M5 rear bumper without the quads... it wont look right. If you want the M5 rear you'll need to cough up the extra $$$ for the quad exhaust set-up.

What model E60 do you have? That will determine how your quad exhaust will sound, a 545i would sound more aggressive than a 525i with a quad set-up.

I don't remember paying $400-500 for my magnaflow quads and the rear m5 from umnitza cost like $300 I think I paid $3-$350 can't remember but if you can search for my post on quads when I did mine I had sound clips in there also.
