Looking good!

One thing though. I don't think the M5 mirrors will go well with the new look. So you should just sell them to me....

Your welcome! Just wanted this thread to be informative for the many who are curious of how the Magnaflow or anything else, would be effected by the placement of the exhaust. What model E60 do you have?

Your diagram looks great either way, but since you got a 525i I would certainly delete the square resonator. One thing your forgetting though, On a 530 and 525, The two pipes that feed into the square resonator has an OEM Y-Pipe feed as a single inlet to the resonator, and out has a single outlet to the OEM exhaust not a two outlet. If you keep that OEM Y-pipe there then you can go either direction on your diagram with out loosing back pressure, I believe. Correct me if I;m wrong members.
