"Speed_force: How is it performance wise? Did u notice any loss of torque or gain in hp?"
Nothing noticeable up or down in relation to HP. Feels great though as I give it gas for sure. I would need to Dyno it to know for sure.

Looks great Phi. The rear looks too high, time for a drop!
Yeah will do as soon as I get smaller series tires up front. As for now I rub when going fast over bumps in the road, so that is not an option just yet.

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.
Did you delete yours? If so, what did you replace it with?

Oh i see what you're saying... so that means I need a Magnaflow muffler that is "1 inlet 2 outlet" in order to make my diagram work without losing back pressure? I plan on keeping the OEM resonator.

Franks correct. I replaced the square resonator with the magnaflow. If you keep the OEM y pipe then u will need a one in two out. If you use a two in two out exhaust then, to keep back pressure u will need an x pipe. If keep the stock y pipe will save you close to one hundred bucks.
